As with any form of insurance, your actual coverage will vary depending on the policy you choose and your insurer. Some insurers provide more in their basic packages than others do in their comprehensive coverage and it is important to look at what exactly is included as part of the price you pay. Choosing the wrong home emergency cover could actually end up costing you more so be sure that you understand your policy in detail before committing to making a purchase.
