November 7, 20224 yr As we all know, when building, any delay on one front can blow up schedules across the board and cost time and money. Just want to make sure I tick all boxes. Is there affordable insurance against: (just some examples) - Finding an unexploded WWII bomb or buried chemical dump or whatever "historical inconvenience" that we couldn't have known about and causes massive delays? Can I be compensated for the delay somehow especially if the culprit is nowhere to be found, or in a ditch, covered in petrol, on fire? -Some human trying to tie me up in court over something. E.g. someone, maliciously or no, says there are cross-twitted hedgewarblers in my rear yard and therefore I can't demo, investigation costs 2 months. No matter if they are right or not, if they tie me up in court it costs money.. so: Court/Legal costs Cost of delays/replanning? - Builder goes bust, new builder asks way more than original builder Won't someone pay the difference? - Deliveries get delayed, even though the orders were made at a reasonable time who do you sue?
