General Insurance – Protecting Your Home, Property & Peace of Mind

Your home and property are among your most valuable assets — and protecting them properly is essential. At L & K Financial, we offer expert advice on a range of general insurance solutions, including Buildings & Contents Insurance and Landlords Insurance.

Whether you’re a homeowner, tenant, or property investor, we’ll help you find the right level of cover to safeguard what matters most.

Buildings & Contents Insurance

Your home is more than just bricks and mortar — it’s your safe space, your family base, and often your biggest investment.

Buildings Insurance

Buildings Insurance protects the physical structure of your home against damage from:

  • Fire, flood, or storm
  • Burst pipes or subsidence
  • Vandalism or accidental damage

Contents Insurance

Contents Insurance covers everything inside your home — furniture, electronics, clothing, and personal possessions — against loss, theft, or damage.

Having both in place ensures your home and belongings are protected from life’s unexpected events.

We’ll help you:

  • Understand what your current home policy covers (and what it doesn’t).
  • Find competitive quotes from trusted UK insurers.
  • Combine buildings and contents insurance for simple, seamless protection.

Landlords Insurance

If you own a rental property, standard home insurance isn’t enough. You need dedicated Landlords Insurance that protects both your property and your rental income.

A comprehensive landlord policy can include:

  • Buildings cover – for damage caused by fire, flood, or accidental damage.
  • Landlord contents cover – for items you provide in furnished properties.
  • Loss of rent – if your tenants can’t live in the property due to an insured event.
  • Liability cover – protecting you against claims from tenants or visitors.

We understand how important your property investment is. Our role is to help you find reliable, cost-effective cover that keeps your assets and income secure.

Frequently Asked Questions – General Insurance

Buildings insurance protects the structure of your home — including walls, roof, floors, and permanent fixtures — against damage caused by fire, flood, storms, or other insured events.

Contents insurance covers your personal belongings, such as furniture, clothing, and electronics, against loss, theft, or damage. Together, they ensure your home and everything in it are properly protected.

If you own your home or have a mortgage, buildings insurance is usually required by your lender. Even if it’s not mandatory, it’s strongly recommended — as repairing or rebuilding a home after serious damage can be extremely costly without cover.

Yes. Your landlord is responsible for insuring the building itself, but your belongings are not covered under their policy. Contents insurance ensures your personal possessions are protected against theft, fire, or accidental damage.

You should insure your home for its rebuild cost — the amount it would take to rebuild your property from scratch, not its market value. This figure can usually be found on your mortgage valuation or survey. We can help you check that your policy reflects the right rebuild cost.

Landlord insurance can include:

  • Buildings cover for damage to your property.
  • Landlord contents insurance for furnished properties.
  • Loss of rent if the property becomes uninhabitable after an insured event.
  • Public liability cover for claims from tenants or visitors.
    Some policies can also include legal expenses and home emergency cover for added peace of mind.

Absolutely. Most insurers offer combined policies that cover both your home’s structure and your belongings. These are often more convenient and cost-effective than having separate policies.

Some policies include accidental damage cover as standard, while others offer it as an optional extra. We’ll explain what’s included in each quote and help you decide if adding this cover is worthwhile for your situation.

If you need to make a claim, we’ll guide you through the process and help ensure your insurer receives all the necessary information. Having the right cover in place from the start makes claiming simple, stress-free, and straightforward.
