• The period your home was built in (e.g. 1970s)
• The number of years you’ve had a home insurance policy without making a claim. Churchill uses this information to calculate your No Claim Discount, which is included in your home insurance quote (not all home insurance companies offer a discount)
• The names of any joint owners or mortgage lender (if applicable)

But you don’t need to spend ages working out the value of all your contents or finding out the rebuild value of your home. Your Churchill home insurance quote will automatically include up to £250k buildings cover and £40k contents over, which is plenty for most people.

And if you’re shopping around for a home insurance quote, always make sure you compare the cover and benefits as well as the premium. What may seem like a great price could turn out to be a false economy if it doesn’t offer the cover you need.
