Why do I need Listed Building Home Insurance

In Scotland their grading system is not the same as England or Wales and they use Grades A, B and C instead, their methods of grading is also slightly different so a Grade 2* in England and Wales  for example is not necessarily the same as Grade B in Scotland.

If you are reading this then you probably own or are looking to buy a building that is listed, if you would like to know more about a listed building such as why it is listed or what restrictions it may have you should contact your local council or local planning authority as they are the official body for listed buildings in their respective area.

You will need home insurance for listed buildings because a standard home insurance policy does not take in to account the different techniques and building materials that may be required to restore a property after it has been damaged. Generally they are regarded as non standard construction and may have a greater rebuild cost, Highhouse listing buildings insurance have been underwritten to take this into account.
