Why homeowners should worry about under-insurance..

Under‑insurance is now one of the biggest risks facing UK homeowners — and most don’t realise they’re affected until they make a claim.

With rebuild costs rising sharply, many homes are no longer insured for what it would actually cost to repair or rebuild them. And when that happens, insurers apply the average clause, resulting in reducing payouts in line with how under‑insured the property is.

What this means in real terms:
• A 25% shortfall in cover = a 25% reduction in any claim
• Renovations and extensions often push rebuild costs higher
• Market value and rebuild value are not the same
• Storm, flood and escape‑of‑water claims are increasing
• Mortgage lenders expect accurate sums insured
Even small claims can be significantly reduced if the property is under‑insured.

At Fairweather Insurance, we help homeowners check their rebuild value, avoid gaps in cover, and stay fully protected.

Cyber insurance in 2026: The year SMEs face the toughest standards yet

Is your business ready for 2026 Cyber requirements?

Cyber insurance is about to get tougher for small businesses, and 2026 will be the turning point.

With claims up, ransomware rising, and the new Cyber Security & Resilience Bill reshaping expectations, insurers are tightening their standards fast.

What this means for SMEs:
• Basic controls (MFA, patching, backups) are now non‑negotiable
• Premiums will split — strong controls rewarded, weak controls priced out
• More pressure from larger clients to prove cyber hygiene
• Higher risk of fraud, impersonation and supply‑chain breaches
• Losing cyber cover could mean losing contracts

The message is clear:
Cyber insurance in 2026 isn’t just protection, it’s a business survival tool.
