Home Insurance with Lodgers

Home Insurance with Lodgers | Covering your home & liabilities

Sharing your home with lodgers can make good sense, but you need the right house insurance policy giving you extra cover, which may not be available elsewhere. Our policy includes your legal liability for accidents to lodgers. Property owner’s liability insurance under our buildings policy and occupier’s liability under our contents cover. Court awards for injury claims can be substantial. Without liability insurance in place the consequences would be very costly.

Loss of rent & cost of temporary accommodation

Loss of your rental income from lodgers and the cost of your temporary accommodation is also included. Based on up to 25% total per claim of the combined buildings and contents sums insured. This extension becomes operative if disaster strikes and your home becomes uninhabitable following insured damage. Such as a fire or flood.

Option to include accidental damage, theft & malicious damage cover

Under both buildings and contents. Even if damage or theft to your home and possessions is accidentally and / or maliciously caused by your lodgers.
