Buildings insurance
Buildings insurance covers the cost of repairing or rebuilding the structure of your home that is damaged by events such as a flood, fire or a storm. This also covers permanent fixtures in your home, such as fitted kitchens and fitted bedroom furniture. This doesn't include the items inside your home - you'd need contents insurance for that.
Contents insurance
Contents insurance covers the cost of repairing or replacing the items in your home that have been stolen, or damaged by events such as a flood, fire or storm. This includes household goods and personal effects owned by you or your family. This also includes any high value items that you name on your policy.

How much excess would I need to pay?
Your excess is the amount you’ll pay towards most types of claim. You can choose your own excess between £100 and £500. A higher excess means your cover will cost less, but you’ll have to pay more towards a claim.
With Bronze and Silver cover, there's a different excess for subsidence and leaking water claims.
