What are buildings and contents insurance?

Buildings and contents insurance provide the main cover you need to look after your property and your possessions. Buildings insurance is usually required by any mortgage company offering to lend you money, but you do not need to take their buildings insurance – you simply have to have buildings insurance in place.

What is the difference between buildings and contents insurance?

Buildings and contents insurance are different things. Buildings insurance covers the fabric of your home against loss or damage caused by events like a fire, a tree falling on your roof, a vehicle crashing into your home, subsidence or a water leak damaging ceilings.

Contents insurance is about cover for your possessions, which may be damaged in similar incidents, or stolen in a burglary.
