Still have questions?

Why is home appliance cover important?
Black arrow outline. Pointing down.

Domestic appliances can break down unexpectedly, and repairs can be expensive. BIG Warranties' home appliance cover means a standard breakdown won’t break the bank.

Do you offer a discount for insuring more than one appliance?
Black arrow outline. Pointing down.

Yes, we offer a multi-appliance discount. When you insure 4 appliances annually, we will take 20% off your policy price – keep your whole kitchen covered and save.

Do you offer appliance insurance for landlords as well as homeowners?
Black arrow outline. Pointing down.

Yes. Our landlord appliance policy covers the appliances in your rental property against breakdown, mechanical and accidental damage, giving peace of mind to both landlords and their tenants.

What is covered?
Black arrow outline. Pointing down.

We will cover your appliance against accidental damage and breakdowns including electrical and mechanical faults.

What's the difference between an extended warranty and a BIG Warranties insurance policy?
Black arrow outline. Pointing down.

Most extended warranties cover you for electrical faults once your original manufacturer's warranty ends. If you accidentally damage your appliance, for example its screen or internal components, other companies may not cover you. A BIG Warranties policy covers you against accidents and electrical or mechanical faults, saving you hundreds of pounds in repair costs.

*When policy is paid annually, if paying monthly a 15% discount applies
‍
We provide a great range of home appliance insurance policies and warranties for landlords and homeowners across the UK, covering ovens, fridges, washing machines, freezers, dishwashers and more. Plus affordable landlord and homeowner home emergency insurance covering boilers, plumbing and drainage and even more.
