Cornhill Direct: Insurance important in winter

Cornhill Direct has warned homeowners that they could pay a costly price if they do not winter-proof their houses.

A survey of 1,000 people by the insurer revealed that 43 per cent admitted they do not have protective lagging surrounding water pipes, while 30 per cent do not have this around their water tank.

The data also indicates that 38 per cent of respondents do not think they can do anything to protect their properties if the temperature drops.

Simon Coughlin, spokesman for Cornhill Direct, commented: "The winter weather is the biggest cause of domestic emergencies. When a cold snap bites, pipes can freeze and overworked central heating systems break down.

"More than 50 per cent of people do not know if their insurer provides an emergency helpline. People should keep this number to hand in case they need it this winter."

Cornhill Direct recently offered advice to homeowners to protect against damage caused by flooding.
