I suppose the biggest concern that we have is what is the worst case situation if there is damage done to our property, and how can we mitigate against it?

I guess check the repute of the builder, and ask for confirmation of their liability cover.

I think you should also inform your own buildings insurance co of the work before it begins - they do require to be informed if you are carrying out significant work on your own property, and may consider this 'attachment' to be of interest too.
