Home Insurance

Protect your most valuable asset with the right home insurance. We help you find competitive buildings and contents cover to give you complete peace of mind.

Protecting Your Home

Your home is likely your most valuable asset, so protecting it with the right insurance is essential. Most mortgage lenders require you to have buildings insurance in place as a condition of your mortgage, but it's important to ensure you have adequate cover rather than just the minimum required.

We can help you find competitive home insurance that provides the right level of protection for your property and possessions, at a price that suits your budget.

Types of Home Insurance

Buildings Insurance

Covers the structure of your home — walls, roof, floors, windows, and permanent fixtures — against damage from events such as fire, flood, storm, subsidence, and escape of water.

  • Required by most mortgage lenders
  • Covers rebuild cost (not market value)
  • Includes outbuildings and garages
  • Liability cover often included
  • Covers permanent fixtures and fittings
  • Subsidence and heave cover

Contents Insurance

Covers your personal belongings and household items against theft, loss, or damage. Think of it as insurance for everything you'd take with you if you moved house.

  • Furniture, electronics, clothing
  • Jewellery and valuables
  • Optional accidental damage cover
  • Personal possessions away from home
  • Freezer food cover
  • Replacement as new option

Getting the Right Level of Cover

One of the most common mistakes homeowners make is underinsuring their property. For buildings insurance, you need to insure the rebuild cost of your home — not its market value. These can be very different figures.

For contents insurance, it's worth taking the time to add up the value of everything in your home. Most people significantly underestimate the total value of their possessions.
