What does woodland protection cost?

There is no single premium suitable for every woodland. A quotation must match its area, stands, location and requested cover.

Use the same scope for each quotation

Send each provider the same parcel list, woodland area and stand description. Disclose known losses and intended activities. A per-hectare premium is meaningful only with this context.

Compare four amounts

Review annual premium, insured capital, the damage threshold triggering a claim and the excess you pay. A policy advertised with no excess may still have a trigger threshold. Check event limits too.

Species, ages and stand structure change how woodland is assessed. A visit helps compare hypotheses with the trees actually present.

Assess the post-loss funding gap

Compare cover with quotations for making the site safe, clearance, planting and maintenance. Establish how salvage timber is treated. This shows expenses that would remain to be funded.

A WoodWorth estimate is not an insurance quotation

The report helps describe the scope and provides an indicative property-value scenario. It is neither an insured-capital certificate nor an insurance offer. Agree the declared capital with the professional underwriting the risk. Read the forest cover guide.
