Insurance for your home
We’ll protect your home, inside and out, in minutes
Our home insurance can be tailored to fit your needs and budget. Along with buildings and contents cover, you can also add the extras: emergency cover to help you quickly sort out headaches from roof damage to electrical failure, or accidental damage for life's little mishaps. We can insure you against legal disputes, and help minimise the stress of replacing lost keys. We'll always do our best to get you immediate cover, no matter how tricky your situation.
Landlords insurance
We’ll protect your rental income and your let property
Worry and hassle go with the territory when you're a landlord, but our cover can help you minimise both. We'll cover you from fires to floods. We can cover you for criminal damage by tenants or loss of rent. With our home emergency cover, you're always only one phone call away from sorting out anything that makes your home unsafe - from broken pipes to heating failure. We've also got additional cover for legal expenses or lost keys.
Holiday home insurance
We’re happy to insure your UK-situated second home or holiday home
Most insurers don't cover holiday or second homes, dismissing it as 'specialist' insurance. We don't make that distinction. No matter who uses your holiday home we're as happy to insure it as we are the one you live in. You can opt for building or contents or both. We also have a range of useful add-ons to help you protect your UK holiday home.
Unoccupied property insurance
We’ll cover your unoccupied property, no matter how long it’s empty
There are lots of reasons why your property might not be occupied. You may have moved away to start a new job before finalising the sale of your home. You may be awaiting probate, sale or occupation. Your property could be undergoing major renovation. Maybe you're spending time abroad. We can cover the vast majority of unoccupied situations and tailor our policies accordingly. The vast majority of circumstances are quotable online, so why not get started right now?
Working from home insurance
You work from home. Good idea!
More and more people are working from home these days. It makes a lot of sense. What doesn't make sense to us is that most insurance companies still won't cover home-based businesses, such as cleaning services, online retailers or bed and breakfasts. We'll protect your personal possessions and your business contents when your place of work is also your place of residence.
