INTRODUCTION
What is Property Developer Insurance?
Property Developer Insurance is a specialist insurance solution created for individuals, partnerships, and companies involved in property development.
Unlike standard property insurance, it is designed to protect development projects from land acquisition through to completion. Cover can be arranged for new-build developments, property conversions, renovations, extensions, and major refurbishment works.
Whether you’re developing a single residential property or delivering a large multi-unit scheme, specialist insurance helps manage the risks associated with construction and property development.
Who Needs This
What Does Property Developer Insurance Cover?

Contract Works Insurance
Buildings Insurance
Public Liability Insurance
Employers' Liability Insurance
Property Owners' Liability
Existing Structure Cover
Plant, Tools and Equipment Cover
Materials in Transit and On-Site
Legal Expenses Insurance

Every policy can be tailored to reflect the size, value, duration, and complexity of your development.
Whether you’re completing your first project or managing multiple developments across the UK, specialist insurance helps protect your investment from unexpected events.
Why Property Developers Need Specialist Insurance
Construction and development projects involve risks that change throughout every stage of the build.
Developers may need protection against:
Fire, flood, and storm damage
Theft of building materials
Damage during construction
Injury to third parties
Employee accidents
Delays caused by insured events
Damage to neighbouring properties
Contractor-related risks
A specialist Property Developer Insurance policy helps minimise financial disruption while keeping your project protected.
Contract Works Insurance
Contract Works Insurance is one of the most important covers for property developers.
It can help protect work in progress, building materials, and partially completed structures against insured losses during construction.
Cover may include:
New-build structures
Refurbishment works
Structural alterations
Building materials
Temporary works
Site security structures
If damage occurs during construction, Contract Works Insurance can help cover repair or replacement costs.
Public & Employers' Liability Insurance
Construction sites present a range of risks for workers, contractors, visitors, and members of the public.
Public Liability Insurance can help protect against claims for injury or property damage arising from your development activities.
If you employ staff, Employers’ Liability Insurance is generally a legal requirement in the UK and helps protect against claims arising from workplace injury or illness.
These covers form an important part of a comprehensive Property Developer Insurance programme.
Existing Structures Cover
Many developments involve extending, renovating, or converting existing buildings rather than constructing entirely new ones.
Existing Structures Cover can help protect the original building while construction work is taking place.
This can be particularly valuable for:
Property conversions
Listed buildings
Heritage properties
Residential refurbishments
Commercial redevelopment projects
