Insurance broker for Pinner
Cover for Pinner homes, landlords and businesses, from an independent broker who knows the High Street's listed buildings and the River Pinn.
or call 01753 882222
Pinner sits in the London Borough of Harrow, and we arrange insurance there for people who own homes, let property or run businesses. We are an independent broker working from Chalfont Hall in Chalfont St Peter, in business since 1984, which means we can take your details to several insurers and compare what they offer. Pinner has more than its share of old buildings and conservation areas, and the River Pinn runs through it. Both shape the questions an insurer asks, and both are worth getting right before a claim rather than after one.
Pinner's buildings and the River Pinn
Harrow Council designated the Pinner High Street Conservation Area in 1968 and describes the street as a remarkable survival of a medieval village, with timber-framed buildings, some listed and some dating from as early as the 15th century. The council's Pinner page lists 13 conservation areas in all, including Waxwell Lane, Tookes Green and Moss Lane, and the High Street has an Article 4 Direction, so some alterations that would elsewhere need no permission need planning approval here. The Church of St John the Baptist is listed Grade II*.
For anyone living near the river, the Environment Agency includes Pinner in its River Pinn flood alert area. Its gauge at Moss Close marks a level above which property flooding is possible, and the highest level recorded there was in June 2016. We find out whether flood is covered as standard on each policy, and on what terms, before recommending one.
Cover we arrange for Pinner clients
For older homes, let property and local firms, these are the policies we would start with.

Questions about insurance in Pinner
Does a timber-framed or listed home in Pinner cost more to insure?
It often does, because rebuilding with traditional methods and materials costs more and may need consent. The important thing is that the sum insured reflects that cost. We help you arrive at a sensible figure and find insurers comfortable with older construction.
What does the Article 4 Direction on Pinner High Street mean for insurance?
It mainly affects planning, but it also means repairs and replacements may have to follow set rules. We check that a policy pays for repairs done in the way the rules require, not just the cheapest way.
