Frequently asked questions

  • Why do I need home insurance?

    Although home insurance is not required by law, many mortgage providers will require you to have buildings insurance in order to receive your loan. They do this to ensure that your building is fully protected in the event of any incidents which in turn, helps protect their investment.

    The main reason as to why you, as the owner, need home insurance is to protect the financial investment which is your house. Without home insurance, in the event of any incident you may be left to pay out of pocket, which often can be quite a financial burden.

    AXA’s Home Insurance policies help protect you, your home and all your belongings from the unexpected giving you the peace of mind that we are always here to help.

  • What is covered under AXA home insurance?

    With AXA, we aim to ensure that whatever type of home you have – be it a rented property or property that you own, we are here to protect you.

    AXA’s home insurance covers buildings and contents against unexpected accidents such as fire, theft, flood and storm, along with much more. Our home insurance is available in three different forms - buildings insurance, contents insurance, and buildings and contents allowing you to choose the best policy for your home.

  • What home insurance policies does AXA offer?

    Buildings Insurance – This covers the property’s structure, fixed appliances along with any sheds/outhouses in the event of fire, flooding or storm damage. It also includes any damage to your underground services, windows, or any escaped water from the likes of kitchen pipes. This does not cover any belongings or contents you may have within the home.

    Contents Insurance – This cover provides protection for any of your personal belongings or valuable contents within the home. This type of insurance is recommended to those who are renting their house as it will only protect your contents and not the building structure.

    Buildings & Contents Insurance – This cover protects both the physical building, along with all contents/belongings within the home from unexpected events.

    The full range of what is covered under AXA’s home insurance is available in our policy documents, including terms and conditions.
