Your cover
In France, home insurance is built around the multirisque habitation contract, which brings several protections together into one policy so your building, your belongings and your legal responsibility are all covered under the same roof.
Walls, roof, fitted kitchens and permanent fixtures against fire, storm and water damage.
Furniture, appliances, valuables and personal effects against theft, damage and destruction.
The responsabilité civile cover that protects you if your home or family accidentally causes damage to others.
One of the most frequent claims in France, from a burst pipe to a leaking appliance.
The statutory catastrophe naturelle guarantee for recognised events such as flooding and subsidence.
Emergency help such as a plumber, locksmith or temporary rehousing when your home becomes unsafe.
Local cover
Homes around Saint-Jean-d’Angely include stone houses in the old town near the royal abbey, properties along the Boutonne and houses out in the Saintonge countryside. We help match your cover to the property, whether you own, rent or are restoring an older building, so everything that matters is properly declared.
