1. Is your home insured for the right amount?
Have you checked that your buildings and contents cover still reflects today's rebuilding and replacement costs? If you've renovated, extended, or upgraded your home, your cover may need updating.
2. Has anything changed in the last year?
Think about any changes to your home or lifestyle:
- Home improvements
- New valuables or tech
- Working from home
- Changes to who's living in the property
All of these could affect your insurance needs.
3. Do you actually know what's covered?
Most people don't check their policy until they need to claim. Take a quick look at what's included, what's excluded, and whether options like accidental damage still make sense for you.
4. Could your excess be saving you money?
A higher voluntary excess can lower your premium, but make sure it's an amount you'd be comfortable paying if something went wrong.
5. Would you know what to do if you needed to claim?
Before renewing, make sure you know where your documents are, how to update your details, and who to contact if you need help.
Your home insurance renewal isn't just about the price. It's a chance to make sure your cover still fits your home, your belongings, and your life today.
