Woodworm Insurance

Conventional household and contents insurers rarely provide policies that cover for attack by wood boring beetles more commonly referred to as woodworm. Peter Cox property insurance provides protection against the worrying risks associated with a woodworm infestation. We insure most residential properties from flats, to houses and mansions.

Woodworm infestations have the potential to seriously compromise the structural integrity of your timber and can result in lengthy and costly remedial work in order to preserve the property.

In addition to the significant damage woodworm can cause to  timber, it is often quite difficult to spot the signs of woodworm before these insects have already inflicted damage to the property, so it can be very beneficial to have woodworm insurance in place as a contingency.

It could not be easier to insure your home with Peter Cox property insurance. Simply book a woodworm survey with Peter Cox to inspect your property and based on the survey and your requirements, appropriate insurance cover can be provided.
