What's Included our Home Insurance in Spain?

High water bills
If you have a broken pipe and do not realise you have a problem then you will more than likely receive a high water bill from the water company or the town hall. You would be able to claim for the excess water consumption.
Solar Panels
Many people are changing over to solar panels whether or not it is for hot water or for generating electricity but whichever panels they are still a large investment and you need to make sure that you are correctly covered should they be stolen, or damaged through storms and tempest. Our home insurance fully covers solar panels.
Garden furniture
Garden furniture is so expensive nowadays and our policy covers all furniture located in the garden, terraces or balconies of the insured home.
Natural disasters
If a natural disaster occurs then it is down to the Spanish Consortium to pay out for any claims such as flooding, fires, storms, earthquakes etc. To be able to claim from the consortium you have to have an insurance policy in place and if you look at your insurance receipt you will see that part of the yearly premium that you pay goes to the consortium body, so even more reason why you have to have a good house insurance in place. We deal with all consortium claims on your behalf.
