What is Contents Insurance?
Contents insurance does what it says on the tin. It’s a type of insurance policy designed to protect the personal contents within your home against loss, damage, or theft. If you’re unfortunate enough that any of these things were to happen to your possessions, contents insurance can then be there to have your back and cover the cost of replacing or repairing them.
Whether you treated yourself to something new or have a collection of items you want to protect, a tailored contents insurance policy can ensure you’re not left empty-handed if something goes wrong.
You can get in touch with an insurance broker, such as Howden, who can help you compare various coverage options and, in the end, find you the perfect contents insurance policy.

Typically, though, an insurance provider’s contents insurance policy will offer cover for the following items:
- Fine art paintings or prints
- Appliances

- Furniture (antique too)
- Electronics and gadgets
- Antiques
- Rugs and tapestries
- Sculptures
- Jewellery
- Gold, silver, and plate
- Clocks and barometers
- Vintage wine
- Book collections
- Unusual, rare, or commissioned collections
We also work with specialist insurers to provide cover for more specific items, such as musical instruments or drones. There are policies for different people needing their contents covered for different reasons too. Whether you are a student, or someone who has tenant in your property, we’ll do our best to find you a contents insurance policy that can protect what belongs to you as well.
