  Safeguarding your home and possessions:

We all have our valued possessions, along with many more we take for granted. While some are irreplaceable, there are a surprising number we would need to replace, should the worst happen. From kitchen appliances to the kitchen sink and house itself, it all adds up.

What if a major catastrophe – like fire, lightning, storm or flood damage or falling trees – hit your home? How would you afford to replace the clothes, furniture, books and other items lost in a fire? What would be the real cost of rebuilding or repairing your home to the quality and size it is now?

And what of those essentials of daily life we take out and about – music players, mobile phones, digital cameras and sunglasses? Small, portable, easy to lose, and appealing to thieves. Costly to replace and frustrating to do without.

Home Cover is South West Credit’s building, contents and valuables insurance solution that can protect any or all of these scenarios.

Home Cover provides peace of mind that, if, through specific events, your property is damaged, destroyed or stolen, it can be repaired or replaced. And it will usually be on a “new-for-old” basis, regardless of the item’s age.
