Contents Insurance

When you move home you should always ensure your possessions are insured, in case of accidental damage or theft. As a tenant, it is your responsibility to arrange the right contents insurance.

Our specialist tenants’ Contents Insurance covers you for:

  • Damage or loss of your possessions through incidents and accidents
  • Flooding and fire risk – something that not all policies cover!
  • Cover for liabilities towards your landlord’s property and its contents

If you want to avoid part of your deposit being retained by your landlord at the end of the tenancy, taking out Contents Insurance is recommended as it'll cover you for any accidental or uninsurable damages.
