What does landlord insurance cover?

Optional cover
Other benefits

The following cover types are included in our landlord insurance, as standard:

Buildings Insurance, including Boiler Cover.

Glass and Sanitary Ware.
Public Liability cover of £2m, with the option to increase.
Floor Coverings (up to £5k, with an option to increase).
Alternative Accommodation so we'll pay to re-house your tenants following an insured event such as a flood or fire, subject to policy limits.
*Either buildings OR contents is standard, not both.

For an additional premium, you can add any of these covers to your landlord insurance policy:

Landlord Emergency – if there's an insured emergency at your rented property, we'll send out a contractor to deal with the problem.
Legal Expenses – covers the cost of defending your legal rights. Includes Repossession Cover, Nuisance and Eviction of Squatters Cover, and Tax Protection.
