Webinar – Rebuild costs in 2026: what’s changing and why?

Published: 03/08/2026

Join BCIS for a timely look at the forces shaping rebuild costs across the built environment.

Drawing on the latest BCIS residential rebuild cost model updates and movement in the ABI/BCIS House Rebuilding Cost Index (HRCI), our panel will explore how geopolitical instability, regulatory change and wider market pressures are influencing reinstatement costs, and what that means for insurers, brokers, surveyors and other construction professionals.

The session will cover:

  • The 2026 update to the BCIS residential rebuild models and the latest movement in the ABI/BCIS House Rebuilding Cost Index (HRCI)
  • How conflict in the Middle East is affecting fuel, energy and construction material costs, based on the latest available data
  • Current trends in commercial reinstatement costs
  • Other factors influencing rebuild costs, including labour markets and regulatory change
  • What these developments mean for anyone setting, reviewing or relying on rebuild costs in 2026 and beyond

Whether you’re underwriting risk, assessing claims, carrying out reinstatement cost assessments, pricing projects or advising clients, you’ll leave with a clearer understanding of the factors influencing rebuild costs today, supported by the latest BCIS data and expert insight.
