Why Home Contents Insurance is important
It provides protection against theft or damage to items in your home.
You might have heard the example that when you flip your house upside down and shake it, whatever falls out is what you can insure under Home Contents Insurance.
This includes items that always remain in your home, such as your furniture, electronics and appliances that belong to you or any members of your household who live with you. It also includes contents in your garages, domestic quarters, storerooms and outbuildings, as well as all your garden and leisure equipment.
How much cover you need
You should be covered for the amount that it will cost to replace all your current possessions with new ones.
To make sure that your home contents are fully protected and not underinsured, it’s important to accurately calculate the value of all your possessions. The best way to do this is to move from room to room in your house and list everything you consider a possession, not just your most valuable items.

Home Contents vs. Personal Belongings Insurance
Home Contents Insurance covers your home and personal belongings limited to your risk cover address. There is no need to specify the amount of your personal belongings as items have a limited percentage cover of the contents sum insured.
Once contents leave your home, they’re no longer covered under Home Contents Insurance, and fall under Personal Belongings/All Risk, these items will need to be specified to ensure adequate cover.
