In the event of a burst water supply pipe Essex and Suffolk water may contribute towards the cost of repairing or replacing it. You’ll need to provide them with a copy of the invoice for the work carried out and their contribution is normally credited on your next bill. If they don’t supply your water, please contact your supplier for details of their service.
When reference is made to ‘we’, ‘our’, ‘us’, and ‘we’re’ this refers to HomeServe Membership Limited.

Heating, Plumbing and Electrics Plus meets the needs of homeowners requiring assistance in the event of certain boiler, heating system, plumbing, drainage, electrics, security and pest problems at the property.
This policy is sold, arranged and administered by HomeServe and underwritten by Aviva Insurance Limited.
Prices include all fees and Insurance Premium Tax (IPT).
Are you covered elsewhere?
Check that you're not already covered by your home insurance or other policies, so you are not paying for cover you don't need.
Are you eligible to apply?
This policy is for homeowners only and doesn't include cover for flats, apartments, mobile homes or park homes. Business premises, let and sub-let properties and council and housing associations also can't be covered.
Make sure that the boiler(s) at your property are fuelled by natural gas (not LPG, oil or solid fuel) and have a total power input of less than 70 KW. And, the diameter of your gas supply pipe must be no bigger than 35mm. We're not able to provide cover for dual-purpose boilers, warm air heating systems, combination and thermal storage units.
What is my excess and how do I pay?
Each separate problem registered will require an excess payment of £60 per claim to be made.
Unrelated problems which are not associated with each other will require a separate excess payment.
Where physical investigation work is undertaken and the problem is not resolved, the excess payment will NOT be refunded.
The excess payment is taken using a credit or debit card. If you book over the phone, your card details must be input using your telephone keypad.
We only accept payment using the following cards: MasterCard, Visa and Visa Debit.
Please read the terms and conditions of your policy for full details.
How long after purchasing do I need to wait before I can make a claim?
Once your policy is set up, your boiler must pass the boiler health check before you can make a claim. Any pre-existing issues will not be covered. Take a look at the terms and conditions of your policy for full details.
What happens after the first year?
Your cover is set up so that it will automatically renew every year. This is to make the process of renewing easier and ensure your home has continuous cover. We’ll send you a reminder about 4 weeks before your cover is due to renew. This will confirm the price of your cover for the next year and prompt you to check that it still meets your needs.
The price of your cover will increase at renewal. Customers about to renew their cover for a second year can expect to pay £54.96 a month* (£659.52 for the year), provided they have made no claims. This price includes the cost of your Boiler Service.
If you’d rather your cover didn’t automatically renew, you can cancel this feature when you apply. Alternatively, you can login or contact us to switch off automatic renewal at any time afterwards.
If you decide you don’t want your cover to automatically renew, you’ll need to contact us each year to renew it yourself and organise payment.
What happens if you change your mind?
There is a Cancellation Period which begins from the start of your policy and is shown on your Policy Schedule (“the Cancellation Period”)
If you cancel in the Cancellation Period and have not made a claim you will receive a full refund. If you have made a claim, you will receive a refund less an amount for the number of days which you have been on cover.
If you cancel after the Cancellation Period and have not made a claim you will receive a refund less an amount for the number of days you have been on cover. If you have made a claim you will be required to pay any remaining payments due for the term of the policy.
Please see the Terms and Conditions for full cancellation information.
