What does fire insurance cover for my house?

When you are looking into the possibilities of fire insurance for your home, you will notice that there are many insurers who offer this. They all often have different premiums and conditions.

Not only can your house be damaged by fire, soot or smoke, so can the belongings in your house.

To insure your house against fire damage, you can take out building insurance. To insure your belongings, or your house contents, against fire damage you can take out house contents insurance.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to take out separate fire insurance for your house or contents. The fire insurance is often part of the building and contents insurance. These insurances offer coverage for more causes of damage than just fire.

What does fire insurance for my house cost?

The premium for fire insurance depends on a number of factors. These include:

  • address of the house
  • type and size of the dwelling
  • type of roofing
  • Year of construction of the dwelling
  • the coverage you want

Because the premium depends on so many factors, it is not possible to state an average premium for fire insurance. This depends entirely on your personal living situation and wishes. Via our website you can easily and quickly make a calculation for home and building insurance.

What should you do if you are moving house, renting out your house or if your house becomes vacant?
