Is dry rot covered by home insurance?
Often, it’s not.
This can be devastating news to homeowners who have encountered dry rot in their homes as most home insurance policies class dry rot as a preventable issue.
This means that you are responsible for spotting the signs early and taking action to prevent dry rot from developing.
This is why subfloor and timber inspections by a qualified surveyor are recommended if you suspect that there may be a dry rot problem in your property.
Prevention is far cheaper than the timber repair works needed after the damage has been done.
