Difference between contents and buildings insurance.
Buildings Cover - Buildings cover generally insures everything
that is immovable about the property like the building itself, walls outbuildings, and bathroom fittings. A simple way to
think of it is by imagining lifting your house up, turning it up and down and shaking it! The things that don’t move
are likely to be part of your buildings insurance.
Contents Cover. The possessions that moved when you shook the house are likely to be covered by your
contents insurance. Examples of items covered by contents insurance are furniture, televisions and electrical appliances,
jewellery, clothes, bedding pictures and mirrors. Many people do not realise the value of their home contents and estimates
suggest that in the average home the replacement cost of all contents would run to £45k if buying new.
Many insurers offer
deals where you will get substantial discounts by taking out a combined policy with them rather than have different insurers
for your contents and buildings insurance.
