how to buy home emergency insurance &
What does home emergency cover mean?
What is Home Emergency
Insurance? Home emergency
insurance typically covers
central heating, boiler
breakdown, plumbing, electrics,
and pipework.
Home Emergency Insurance What Counts as an
Emergency? Boiler breakdown No heating No
hot water Blocked drains Sudden emergency
power outage Broken doors, windows, or locks
Rodent infestation Home emergency insurance
doesn't cover wear and tear - and this includes
damp and rot, and also some policies
The policy will cover the fix/repair but any
damage caused by the problem will be
covered by your general household insurance
- for example, if you had a flood and your
flooring was ruined, you would have to claim
for a new carpet on your house insurance not
on your home emergency cover.
Another important thing to
know is that for home
emergency cover to be valid,
your home should be in good,
maintained order.
An emergency prevents
you carrying on life in your
home as normal.
The emergency can
compromise the integrity of
your home, can impinge on
safety and security, and/or
pose a risk to your health.
Usually, you can claim upto ?
5000 a year as necessary on
home emergency cover and it
will not affect your no-claims
bonus on your household
insurance.
If you don't have emergency
home cover, you first have to
find a tradesman/technician
and that tradesman has to be
available right away.
Peace of Mind With home
emergency cover you know
problems will be dealt with as
soon as possible, enabling
home life to get back to normal
quickly.
With the increasing amount of
time we spend at home and
the greater incidence of
adverse weather conditions,
emergencies happen more
often.
