From barn conversion insurance to chapel conversion projects

Whether you’re transforming a barn, chapel, school, or industrial building, a conversion project gives you the chance to breathe new life into a unique structure. At Self Build Zone, our building conversion insurance protects your project from unexpected risks, helping you complete your conversion safely and confidently.

Catering for your conversion projects

Converting an existing building often involves structural changes, complex restoration work, and valuable materials. That’s why it’s vital to have the right protection in place.

Our building conversion insurance covers:

  • The existing structure is being converted
  • New works and building materials
  • Plant, tools, and equipment on site
  • Optional cover for residential caravans if you’re living on-site

So, whether you need barn conversion insurance or chapel conversions insurance, Self Build Zone ensures your project is protected from start to finish.

Cover the scope of your conversion project

Our building conversion insurance provides comprehensive protection for every stage of your project, from the initial construction phase to completion. It covers the existing structure being converted, the new conversion works, and all materials used throughout the build. Additionally, you can obtain insurance for your conversion site, tools, equipment, and even a residential caravan, if that’s what you need.

How else can conversion insurance help?

Conversion insurance exists to protect the building from damage as a result of building works.

With a Self-Build Zone building conversion policy, you can benefit from:

  • Public liability and employers’ liability – included as standard, protecting you, your family, contractors, and anyone else working on-site.
  • Comprehensive cover for works in progress – protecting materials, structures, and equipment throughout construction.
  • Professional contract templates – through our partnership with ContractStore, we provide easy-to-use, affordable contracts with unlimited use to help prevent disputes between trades.

Why an insured contractor isn’t enough

While your contractor should have their own insurance, it’s often limited to public liability and only active when they’re physically on site. That means your property, materials, and unfinished works may not be covered.

Our conversion insurance gives you peace of mind 24/7, protecting your structure and materials against risks such as fire, vandalism, theft, potential negligence by your builder and more.

Does a building or barn conversion need a structural warranty?

A structural warranty is one of the most important steps to protect your investment, covering the cost of repairing or rebuilding if latent defects appear after completion, which can often take years to surface.

Self-Build Zone’s 10-year structural warranty is lender-approved and one of the best ways to protect your project.
