Protect What Matters

A fire can happen to anyone. In just a few minutes, it can change lives, damage homes and destroy the things that matter most. The good news is that many fires can be prevented, and there are simple fire safety steps you can take to help keep yourself, your family and your home safe.

Could you afford to replace everything you own?

If there was a fire in your home tomorrow, would you be able to replace your clothes, furniture, children’s toys and school uniforms, TVs and kitchen appliances?

Many people think their belongings are covered by their landlord’s insurance, but that’s not the case. United Welsh insures the building, while you’re responsible for insuring the things inside your home.

Contents insurance can help cover the cost of replacing your belongings if they’re damaged, destroyed or stolen, potentially saving you thousands of pounds when you need support most.
