Spring Guide 745 X 360

The Energy Act 2011

Our guide examines why adhering to the Energy Act is essential. This law sets energy efficiency standards for commercial buildings by requiring a minimum Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating. 

The cost of insuring empty properties

We also examine what happens when properties sit empty and how extra costs like higher premiums and maintenance can add up. You'll find practical tips on how to manage this risk.

Working at height

We discuss the risks of working at height and explain your legal duties. Our guide also shares best practices that can help you avoid accidents.

Green initiatives

Green initiatives like solar panels, electric vehicles, and green roofs are popular but can lead to increased insurance claims. We discuss these potential challenges and offer guidance on how to mitigate them.

Insurance terminology explained

The guide also features a useful glossary that explains common insurance terms in plain language, making it easier for you to understand the terminology used in insurance policies and claim processes.
