Your core cover

First off, you need to choose which level of core cover works best for you. There are three options to choose from:

1) Core buildings only with £500,000 cover as standard

This covers the actual structure of your home and will pay to repair it if it gets damaged by fire, flood, subsidence or a falling tree

2) Core contents only with £50,000 cover as standard

This pays to replace lost or damaged contents if you are burgled or if your home is damaged by fire, flood or a storm

3) Core building and contents

This combines the core buildings and the core contents giving you the best possible cover for both your home and possessions.

Once you've decided on your base level, you can select your extra home insurance cover options.
