Residential Park Home Insurance

Park Home Assist Insurance is a UK based, family-run business, providing specialist park home insurance. We are one of the leading providers of insurance for residential park homes and have 19 years’ experience offering one of the most competitive and comprehensive policies available for park home owners. We understand that insuring a park home is completely different to your typical bricks and mortar, which is why our park home insurance is specifically designed with park home owners in mind.

Every member of our team has a high degree of knowledge about park home insurance, so you can be confident that the person you speak to has a specialist knowledge of park homes and that you will receive the right cover. You can take comfort in knowing we do not operate in a call centre, so when you need to contact us, you can speak to the same person every time, just ask for them!

Despite being one of the largest providers of park home insurance within the UK, customer service lies at the heart of everything we do, from the moment you first ask for a park home insurance quote, through to renewal. This service has been recognised by the insurance industry, by awarding the Park Home Assist claims teams with the Customer Services Initiative Award for claims handling in 2017. On the 3rd July, we were recognised once again by the insurance industry when we were announced as winners of The Customer Experience Award at the 2024 British Insurance Awards. We had very similar success at the same event in 2022 when we were announced as winners of two prestigious awards in one night, the 2022 Personal Lines Broker of the Year Award and the 2022 Customer Care Award. These awards stand pride of place next to our 2024 Feefo Platinum Trusted Customer Service Award in recognition of the excellent customer service that we provide to our park home insurance policyholders and our 2020 UK Broker of the Year Award. Each of these awards are a true reflection of our commitment to outstanding customer service.

If you ever have to make a claim we do our best to resolve your claim in a timely and professional manner. We also have our own Claims Co-ordinators who will ensure your claim progresses in a timely and efficient manner, so you can rest assured knowing that you will be well looked after by our award-winning team.

Flood Re Cover

Flood Re

This scheme is a way to help people living at risk of flood get access to affordable park home insurance.

Park Home Assist have become one of the first Park Home Insurers to assist park home owners who struggle to obtain flood cover for their park home when their property may be in a flood risk area. With many insurers refusing to provide any insurance cover for such high risk-areas, Park Home Assist have at least been able to provide cover for clients but flood cover was excluded. Park Home Assist are now able to provide flood cover to many of those park home owners with the implementation of the government-backed scheme, Flood Re.

With our award-winning claims service, and also being voted by the Insurance Industry as ‘2020 Personal Lines Broker of the Year’, with Flood Re cover now available to many park home owners in those high-risk flood areas, Park Home Assist really is the place to insure your Park Home.

How does Flood Re work?

Every insurer that offers home insurance in the UK must pay into the Flood Re Scheme, regardless as to whether they offer the Flood Re scheme or not. This is a levy which raises £180m every year that Flood Re use to cover the flood risks in home insurance policies.

Flood Re works in partnership only with member insurers behind the scenes. When you purchase your park home insurance cover, your insurer can choose to pass the flood risk element of your policy if you live in a high flood risk area to Flood Re for a fixed price, rather than decline to provide you flood cover, or worse of all no cover at all.

If you make a valid claim for flooding, your insurer will pay the claim, and Flood Re will then reimburse your insurer from the Flood Re fund.

In short, you buy park home insurance in the usual way. Flood Re will cover the flood risk and keeps the insurance price affordable.
