Press Release Summary: Suggestions have come for the homeowners who are relaxed about the safe-keeping of their sheds and equipment stored there. Proper insurance should be sought for the outbuildings. Also, to improve the safety measures they can also take up homeowner loans.
Press Release Body: Reports have revealed that the people of UK have become slightly careless about their gardens and shed. This leads to strain on their monetary commitments if any of the stuff kept there gets stolen. This happening is very much possible if the present attitude continues.
Confused has conducted a study which reveals that the people have taken a very carefree attitude towards the upkeep of their gardens and its safety. The study tells that a major number of people do not lock their sheds and keep their gardens well kept and looked after. However if that of the premises is not kept secure, there is a probability that if any mishaps take place, then the homeowner is going to feel the financial strain on him caused due to the theft. The company says that it pays to be watchful and to have the proper insurance for your premises.
The average contents that are kept in the shed are estimated to be around 800 pounds. This figure in itself is big enough to be seriously considered. In addition to this, another 5000pounds worth of gardening equipment are estimated to be present in the sheds which are at risk of theft when the shed is not protected. Even when people have their complete premises insured, there are many policies which do not cover the break-ins that happen in shed over an amount of 1000 pounds.
If the homeowners do not have any insurance at all for their sheds or have a limited cover, they may have to replenish the equipments that are stolen from their personal pocket. This may put a strain on the homeowner when it concerns finances. Also, other financial commitments of the homeowners like personal loan repayment, credit card bills, store and household bills, etc may also be affected with this extra expenses being incurred on the homeowners.
To improve the security measures and precautions for the safety of the complete premises, the homeowners are suggested that they never leave the shed unlocked and prone. If they do so, any thefts that take place will not be funded as the insurance policy turns void in such a situation. The equipment used normally like tiny padlocks, rusty hasps and old hinges should be replaces by better equipment. Also, safety devices like sensor-triggered floodlights, shed alarms, etc should be used for protecting the shed and equipments should be put away properly. If for these effective ways, the homeowner needs money for financing, it is useful to apply for a home improvement loan which will take care of all expenses.
According to Simon Lamble, the product director of Confused, says, "The incidence of shed break-ins increases to higher rates in summers. This happens because the homeowners tend to spend more time in the gardens and little attention is paid to the sheds and their well being. At the time when the homeowners take up their insurance policies, it is suggested that all the equipment which is stored in the sheds should be evaluated properly and only then should the insurance policy be taken according to that."
For those homeowners who want to improve the condition of their shed and the safety measures installation, a home improvement loan will provide the required assistance in the task. Equipments may include lights and locks for the outbuildings. However, for those people who want to take up some extensive renovations for their home, a homeowner loan is another choice available to them. popular home improvement plans are in the minds of more than 35% of the UK citizens which they plan to carry forward with. These include a makeover to the garden, adding rooms, bathrooms, etc. This is being carried out by the homeowners in order to increase the value of their home, the report says.
