Both the cost and the type of coverage offered by different Buildings & Contents Insurance policies varies, but when you compare Aviva Home & Contents Insurance to the competition we think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

For example, of all customers buying home buildings and contents insurance with Aviva, from 1 January 2013 to 30 April 2013, 10% of those customers paid £139 or less. Of course, the premium you pay will depend upon personal circumstances, the type of insurance cover chosen and the method of payment chosen, but rest assured that Aviva Home Insurance is very competitive on price.

Nonetheless, even the most expensive Buildings & Contents Insurance is not much good if you cannot easily get help, or deal with a claim; that's where Aviva Home Insurance also wins, with their award-winning customer service (the Institute of Customer Service Quality Monitoring Customer Focus Award, 2012).

Buildings insurance from Aviva - which is normally purchased along with Contents Insurance - covers the main structure of your home. If in the unfortunate event your home was to subside, or be burnt, or be damaged by some type of extreme weather, your Aviva buildings insurance policy covers the costs of rebuilding or repairing the damage. Buildings insurance also covers, amongst several other things:

* Permanent fixtures in your home, such as built-in wardrobes, kitchen surfaces, taps and wash-basins, baths and showers, etc.
* Outbuildings, boundary walls, access gates, swimming pools, driveways and paths.

Consistently rated highly both by customers and independent review bodies, you can be sure that both the insurance products from Aviva, and the customer service, is second to none.
