Second Home Insurance

Yes, you can add cover for home emergencies to your property insurance policy.

• Three levels of home emergency cover, starting with emergency repairs to the primary heating system at your property
• Extend to include emergency repairs to your drainage and water services, securing broken windows and doors - and dealing with pest infestations
• Access to a 24-hour helpline and network of reliable UK tradespeople

Please talk to your Towergate adviser for details.

We specialise in providing cover where other insurance providers may not. If you've had previous claims, we will still consider your case whether or not you've been rejected by other insurers. This is also handled by our Colchester team and details can be found on our contact page. In all cases, the more information you are able to provide regarding your previous claims, the better.

Homes which are at risk of flood are often a little trickier to insure. We have policies which will cater for flood in some of the harder to cover areas and can often refer cases to our insurers to try and find you a policy. You can read more on insurance, provided by our team in Colchester, for flood risk areas here.

Running a business from your home often means you have slightly different need to a standard home. See our home business insurance webpage for more details.

If you would prefer to spread the cost of your RIB insurance policy, you have the option of setting up a Direct Debit to pay your premium bimonthly instalments through our preferred provider, Premium Credit Limited (PCL).

To find out more about PCL and direct debit payments, select Direct Debit.

To understand more about how PCL work together with Towergate, please read our Regulatory Information.

We have provided a summary of the key features of the policy, above. For details of the terms and conditions applicable, please refer to the insurance product information document and policy wording, which are available during the quotation process.
