Home Emergency cover is there for you if you're experiencing an emergency - a sudden, unexpected event which leaves your home unsafe or not secure, or which leaves you without essential services, like heating or a working toilet.

If you have Home Emergency Cover, we'll arrange for a contractor to come and put in place a temporary repair during the emergency, to keep you and your home safe.

I had a flood in my house which was dealt with extremely professionally

I had a flood in my house and with one phone call , Policy Expert had organised a team to come to the house and start organising repairs. This all happened within 24 hours. There were no lengthy conversations requiring paperwork and policy details. The customer service were extremely polite, professional and reassuring. The cost of my yearly policy is the lowest on the market and I am very pleased with their service.

Brilliant Experience you can talk to a human

Firstly, I was able to speak to a real person who was very helpful and reduced the premium I had been quoted by Direct Line from £570 to £273 the numbers speak for themselves! I would not hesistate to recommend this company.

Izzy put my mind at rest immediately

Izzy put my mind at rest immediately as I had to extend my end date of cover by 2 days due to completion of my house sale being delayed. She was so pleasant , friendly and professional. Thank you.

5 star experience

It was simple and easy to purchase a new building and contents insurance policy with policy expert. The process was plain and simple and took me less than 5 minutes, gaining all the cover I needed. The email confirming my policy documents was in my inbox within seconds of the purchase. Would highly recommend to anyone.
