Insurance to suit your needs

What is home insurance?

If you own your home, combining buildings and contents insurance can be a good option. You’ll just have the one policy, making managing it that little bit simpler.

Building insurance covers the bricks, mortar, fixtures, and fittings of your home. It covers you from things like fire, theft, or storms that damage the structure of your home or any of its permanent fixtures. For example, if a storm blows the tiles off your roof, or a burst pipe in your living room. Buildings insurance can help pay to fix the problem.

Contents insurance covers the things in your home such as carpets and computers. It protects your belongings while they're in your house against being damaged or destroyed because of things like fire and theft. Our contents insurance also covers money, valuables, home office equipment, and even the food in your freezer.


Here for you, when you need us


At TSB, our home insurance policies give you:

  • A claims helpline open 24/7. You can make a claim online or by calling our UK-based call centre.
  • Online service that makes it easy to view your policy documents and make a new claim.
  • A safe place to stay for everyone in the home, including your pets, if it’s unfit to live in due to a claim.
  • 12 month guarantee on all repairs done by our approved trades people.

Our buildings and contents insurance has limits, terms and exclusions on cover.
