Escape of water (EOW) claims remain the biggest driver of home insurance losses in the UK, costing insurers over £1 billion annually. With claim frequency and severity rising, brokers must advise their clients on proactive risk management solutions that insurers trust.
We are excited to expand and introduce our latest partnership with LeakSafe, a leak detection and prevention system, designed to protect homes and businesses from costly water damage. Along with Polygon Group we offer a comprehensive solution to household leaks for your clients.
Why Does This Matter to You and Your Clients?
EOW Claims are the Most Common in the UK
- 42% of home insurance claims in 2023 were due to escape of water.
- Many of these claims are preventable with early detection.
Insurers Are Tightening Policy Terms
- Some insurers are excluding EOW damage unless a leak protection system is installed.
- Installing LeakSafe could help clients reduce premiums, lower excesses, and maintain insurability.
Property Damage = Financial & Emotional Distress
- Leaks don’t just cost money—they disrupt lives.
- Alternative accommodation, ruined possessions, and mental stress all take their toll.
