Don't settle for second best
There are few things worse than having your precious possessions lost, damaged or stolen.
Our contents insurance policy covers a wide range of likely causes of damage to or loss of your possessions at home including theft, flood, and fire.
UIA's generous home contents insurance includes cover for all the things that make up a modern household - in effect it includes all the possessions you would normally take with you when you move house.
Contents insurance cover (up to £75,000 as standard) includes:
- Your furniture
- Home computer and home entertainment equipment including automatic cover for accidental damage
- CDs and DVDs
- Valuables and clothing in the home
- Personal belongings (including those of any visitors)
- Accidental breakage of glass in mirrors and furniture
- Food spoiled by freezer failure because of, for example, an unexpected power cut (£1000 max)
- Fitting and replacement of door locks where the keys have been stolen (£750 max)
- Contents while in the garden (£500 max)
- Public and personal liability up to £5,000,000
Please read the policy summary which outlines the key benefits and exclusions of UIA home insurance.
If an item needs to be replaced as part of a valid claim, we will pay for the full replacement cost less any excess (except for clothing and household linen where a deduction for wear and tear will be made). With many goods, such as electrical appliances, we will save you time and trouble by arranging for the replacement item to be delivered straight to your door.
For an additional premium we can provide extra cover for:
- Accidental damage to your home contents
- Your personal belongings away from the home, anywhere in the UK and Europe and up to 30 days worldwide
- Personal belongings and baggage, up to a maximum of £2,500 per item, pair or set (depending on whether you select the £2,000 or £5,000 value limit)
- Sports and camping equipment, up to a maximum of £2,500 per item, pair or set (if you select the higher of the two value limits)
- Money and credit cards, up to £500
- Pedal cycles away from the home, up to £300 each, maximum of five
- Legal expenses and identity theft cover
- Home Emergency Cover
