Feeling overwhelmed by home repairs? One expert warns that skipping security upgrades could cost you nearly £3,000. Heath Alexander-Bew from the Alan Boswell Group emphasizes the importance of maintaining proper security measures to avoid potential insurance issues. According to Ewing Associates, burglaries can cost homeowners an average of £2,800. In 2023, there were three million reported theft incidents in England and Wales. Policy Expert advises that insurers may require a minimum level of security in your home to be eligible for coverage. Make sure your locks and alarm systems meet your insurer’s specifications to protect your home and belongings. Don’t risk being left without financial cover – invest in secure locks like the five-lever mortice deadlock or multi-point locking systems. Better security can save you money and prevent potential break-ins. Share your thoughts in the comments below and join the Money Saving Club WhatsApp channel for more money-saving tips!
