Landlord Accidental Damage Cover
Landlord Accidental Damage Cover
What's accidental damage cover and why do I need it as a landlord?
Mishaps can and do happen so accidental damage cover is available to protect you against the cost of repairs or damage to your property or its fixtures and fittings.
Even if you have the most careful of tenants, the cost of repairing or replacing damaged property or contents is your responsibility as the landlord.
What does accidental damage cover me for?
Accidental damage can protect against genuine accidents, such as unintentional breakage or spillages caused by you, your tenants, or a guest.

Information you'll need to provide
Whether you ask for a landlord insurance quote online (1-5 properties), need advice or have complex requirements (6+ properties), you'll need the following details to hand:
- Details of the property/properties to be insured
- Any claims you've previously made on the same property/properties
- Any security protection at the property/properties
- If you're a business, how many employees you have and what kind of work they do.
Keep in mind
Standard home insurance won't cover the extra risks you face as a landlord. For example, if a tenant is injured by a falling roof tile at your property or if a flood means your tenants have to move out for a while at your expense.
The small print
Please check you have all the cover you need by reading the policy documentation carefully (this will be provided during the quoting process).
