Normally, before an installation commences, consumers make an upfront deposit or stage payment to their installer. In the event that the installer ceases to trade before the installation has either begun or has been completed, usually the money that they have paid is lost. Our deposit & stage payment protection provides insurance cover to help prevent this from occurring.
Deposits & stage payments can be protected up to 25% of the installation contract value or £5,000 (whichever is lesser).
Deposit & stage payment protection lasts for up to 90 days from the contract signed date. *
* All premiums are subject to IPT (Insurance Premium Tax) at the current rate.
Subject to our approval, accredited installers can purchase protection for homeowners for a variety of home improvements. Please click the links below for full details of the products we cover.
