Step 1. Notify us as soon as possible, using our 24 hour emergency numbers. Retain all damaged property on site. At this stage we need to establish if you have cover for the damage or loss to your property and the policy excess applicable.
Step 2. Take photographs of the damage, get detailed estimates showing a breakdown of required repairs, temporary repairs to your property may be required and arranged by you to prevent further damage.
Step 3. Depending on the complexity of the damage, if you don't wish to handle the claim yourself, you may wish to appoint an independent Loss Assessor to help you prepare and agree your claim, with their fee being payable by you. We can provide support, service and advice at this stage to help you make an informed decision.
During the claims process, the Consumer Protection Code is there to protect you and to assist you deal with claims in a professional manner. Our support, service and advice is in accordance with this code.

Contrary to popular belief, given the right conditions, so many houses are at risk from wind damage, flooding & fire. When it comes to flooding, this requires different cover from just water damage from burst pipes. So if you are renewing your home policy or arranging for new insurance, ask your Sheridan Insurances broker about your cover for flood risk.
That Value At Risk (VAR) and Market Value (MV) are not the same thing. VAR is the total cost of reinstating/rebuilding a property, after total damage has occurred.
That under your home policy your belongings don't necessarily need to be physically on your property to be insured.
Your bicycle is covered under most of our home policies, so if it is stolen when it is chained to the railing outside the shop you are covered.
For people that are self-employed and have a home office in their house that the office and its contents can be covered under your home insurance policy.
