I have an old house that needs the chimney replaced. I have a long term tenant who wishes to stay in the property while the repairs are completed. The tenant is a little bit intellectually disabled, and I am worried what my liabilitiy is if a stray brick finds its way from the chimney onto his head. I spoke to the insurance people, and they said if it was feasable and reasonable for an owner occupier to stay in the property while the works were completed, it would also be reasonable to expect the tenant to stay ( I was going to kick him out while the works were carried out). If the workman fenced off the area, and made all possible precautions to avoid problems, if they did occur, the insurance company would pay. Im kinda ok with this outcome, but I would like anyone else who has been in a similar situation to comment please.
