What assumptions are made in your quick home insurance quote?

We mention above that we make some assumptions about your home and the people living there to speed up the home insurance quote process.

If you agree to these, you’ll get a price.

Once you have your price, you just need to check the details, including your voluntary excess and the date the cover starts. After that, all that’s left to do is pay.

We assume your property:

  • Hasn't been flooded in the last 25 years, including the land it stands on
  • Hasn't suffered from subsidence, heave, or landslip in the last 25 years
  • Has walls built of brick, stone, concrete or brick with timber
  • Has a roof made of tile, slate, concrete or asphalt
  • Isn't used for business, other than clerical work
  • Isn't a Grade 1 or 2* listed building
  • Isn't undergoing any building work
  • Is your permanent residence
  • Nobody living at the property has any unspent or pending criminal convictions
