We get that sometimes you might need a bit more cover to suit your situation. Which is why, on top of our standard home insurance policies, we offer a suite of optional covers.

Home insurance (also known as house insurance) covers your home and/or possessions from damage or loss due to things like fires, flooding, storms, and theft. You are not legally obliged to take out home and contents insurance, but if you have a mortgage, your lender can insist that you have buildings insurance. This will ensure you are covered for rebuild costs if your home is destroyed, for example in a fire. Even if you don’t have a mortgage as you own your home outright, home insurance will protect you financially in the event of burglary, fire or other damage.
Underinsurance occurs when a home is insured for less than the replacement value. This could occur by simply electing for the incorrect value of your home. However this can also occur due to inflation where costs rise overtime and properties are valued more overtime. Please read more details on Underinsurance here.
It’s a good idea to have some basic information about your property to hand when starting a home insurance quote with us, including:
The type of property, number of bedrooms, bathrooms and floors and other structural details.
Also known as ‘reinstatement value’. The amount it would take to rebuild the property if it was demolished.
Your occupation, your home insurance history and details of previous claims.
The estimated cost of replacing the contents of your home as new.
You can find a few simple tips below that could help reduce your home insurance price.
Although there’s an upfront outlay, paying annually tends to work out more cost effective than paying in monthly instalments.
Install burglar alarms, fire alarms and smoke detectors to help manage the risk.
Ensure to shop around and compare home insurance quotes to get the best deal, and the right cover at the right price.

An insurance excess refers to the amount of money that you, as the policyholder, agree to pay towards the cost of a claim. For example, where a claim has a total cost of €1000 and your excess is €250, you will pay the excess and your insurer will pay €750. This is a standard practice in insurance and is designed to share the financial responsibility between you and your insurer. For details on the excesses applicable under your policy, please refer to your schedule.
The contents in your shed or garage is covered, however this is limited to 10% of your contents sum insured.
We provide garden and leisure equipment cover as an optional cover that is available for you to select. This will provide cover against loss or damage to, for example, garden furniture, barbeque equipment, pool cleaning equipment and trampolines.
The maximum amount that will be paid out in the event of a claim is €1000.
Underinsurance occurs when a home is insured for less than the replacement value. This could occur by simply electing for the incorrect value of your home. However this can also occur due to inflation where costs rise overtime and property's are valued more overtime.
For example, if a property's replacement value is €100,000 and it is only insured for €80,000. Then the property is underinsured by 20%. This would result in claims being paid proportionally. Should your house be a total loss and require a total rebuild then the most you will receive is €80,000.
Should there be a claim for €10,000, then 80% of the claim will be entertained and a max of €8,000 will be paid.
Should you have any queries regarding underinsurance, please contact us for assistance or read more details on Underinsurance here.
If you remain claim free for a period of three consecutive years, you get 10% of your paid insurance premiums (less taxes and levies) back in cash. Read terms & conditions here.
