Burglary Insurance
Cover for loss of or damage to property from burglary or housebreaking, subject to policy terms.
How we help
A burglary policy pays for property stolen or damaged when someone breaks into the insured premises. It is commonly taken for homes, shops and offices.
Cover generally requires evidence of forcible entry, such as a broken lock or door. Theft without such signs, or by someone with lawful access, may not be covered, so we explain the condition before you buy.
We help you list the contents to be insured, with values, and we explain the steps after a break-in, including the police report that a claim needs.
What it covers
- Loss of insured contents through burglary
- Damage caused during a break-in

Common questions
What people ask us about Burglary Insurance
Is every theft covered?
No. Burglary cover applies where there is forcible entry or housebreaking. Pilferage or theft without such signs is usually excluded.
What should I do after a burglary?
File a police report straight away, inform the insurer promptly, and do not disturb the scene until the insurer's surveyor has seen it, if one is sent.
Is jewellery covered?
Usually only if declared and within the policy's limits. We check the terms for valuables with you.
