LONDON, April 2, 2012 -- /PRNewswire/ --
Homeowners looking for a new home insurance policy would be wise to check that they are adequately covered should this year's predicted drought conditions lead to subsidence issues.
After an unusually dry winter, it has now been discovered that reservoirs and aquifers have fallen below their normal water levels. Seven water companies across the south and east of England have reacted by introducing hosepipe bans to prevent further water shortage. Southern Water, South East Water, Thames Water, Anglian Water, Sutton and East Surrey, Veolia Central and Veolia South East have all announced that they will enforce water restrictions from 5 April.[1]
As the ground dries out, homeowners may find that their properties will suffer movement and subsidence. Drought weather in the past has led to a jump in the number of subsidence claims on insurance.[2]
