JCT 6.5.1 insurance

Construction work comes with risks that can’t always be avoided. Yet, if you're commissioning building work and something goes wrong – like subsidence or vibration affecting a neighbouring property – you could still be held liable. JCT 6.5.1 insurance is designed to protect you from those risks. At Everywhen, we shape cover that reflects the realities of construction contracts and the responsibilities they carry.
