We ask this so that we can work out the average temperatures on the property's location.

If you don't see the property type listed, select the option closest to it. For example, if the property is on the ground floor of a Victorian terraced home, select ‘Ground floor flat’.

Telling us about the type of property helps us work out the heat loss of your property through the walls, floors and roof.

The age of the home gives us an idea of the construction methods and building materials used. You can find the year the property was built on your most recent survey or home report. Alternatively you can check the details on the property deeds.

Please include all rooms in the property that are currently or could be used as a bedroom, such as office or playroom.
