Garage Portfolio Insurance for Let Garages

Garage Portfolio Insurance can be suitable where garages are let to tenants for private storage use. This is useful for owners who hold a small garage investment portfolio, a block of lock-up garages or several garages rented to local residents.

No cover is provided if any garage is used as a business location, workshop, trade premises or commercial storage unit. If there is any uncertainty about how a tenant is using a garage, this should be checked before arranging cover.

Examples of Garage Portfolio Insurance Claims

Storm Damage – High winds lift sections of roof from several garages in a block.
Vehicle Impact – A tenant or neighbour reverses into one of the garage doors, causing structural damage.
Theft and Break-In – Intruders force entry and damage doors, frames or walls.
Escape of Water – A burst pipe causes water damage to one or more garage structures.
Falling Trees – A falling branch damages the roof or wall of a garage within the portfolio.

Policy Ownership – What Name Should the Policy Be In?

The policy should be arranged in the correct legal name of the garage portfolio owner or ownership body. This helps ensure that the cover reflects the correct insurable interest if a claim is made.

Policies can be issued in individual names, joint names, company names, charity names, trust names, management company names and recognised pension ownership structures.

If your garage portfolio is jointly owned, held through a company, or subject to a financial interest, getting the policy name correct from the outset helps avoid complications later.
