We offer cover for people who have a conviction history – or for people who might struggle to find cover otherwise. We also cover empty properties, or those that are undergoing works.

Why is home insurance more expensive if you have a criminal record?
Having a criminal conviction will often push up the price of your criminal convicted home insurance premiums. Most insurers will ask about any “unspent” criminal convictions you have had in the last five years. So, any convictions are likely to have an impact on your criminal convicted home insurance costs for this period. This is because, as someone with a conviction you are seen statistically to be a higher risk.
Some convictions will have more of an impact than others on your criminal convicted home insurance. For example, you are more likely to be a risk to insurers if you have previously been convicted for insurance fraud or theft.
