‘Home insurance can be an emotive purchase – after all, you’re protecting your home and everything within it, so getting the right product is really important,’ says Hannah Isitt, home insurance expert at GoCompare. ‘From your gadgets to your furniture and even the plants in your garden, home insurance is there to provide peace of mind when the worst happens.’

‘The awards have been developed to help guide people through the market and, having been compiled from a survey of over 20,000 people, the results are pretty robust. While you don’t want to overpay for your home insurance, it’s good to review what’s out there and make sure that you don’t skimp on the cover as it could cost you more in the long run.’
