What's Not Covered Examples
For some additional clarity, this policy is a Home Emergency policy. So it's main purpose is to rectify issues that have occurred unexpectedly and which could be detrimental to the property if left. So there are some issues that would not be covered as they are considered to be general maintenance issues and not of an urgent nature.
Some examples of this would be
- General maintenance including, but not limited, to dripping taps
- Frozen pipes which have not caused any damage
- Leaks from household appliances, such as sink, shower or bath where leakage only occurs when the appliance is in use
- Inoperable toilet, if you have more than one toilet in the home
- Pipes outside the boundary of your home
- Faulty electrical socket in one room
- A blocked sink
- Boiler Service - This can be arranged by finding a local expert at gas safe register
