One of the most significant factors that can affect the price of your insurance premium is how you maintain your house:

• By fitting your home with more advanced heating, electrical, plumbing and security systems, you increase your chances of being offered cheaper insurance premiums.
• By ensuring you do everything you can to ensure that your home is safeguarded, such as installing smoke and burglar alarm systems, also increase your chances of securing cheaper premiums.
• Insurers will also offer a discount for homeowners with a claims-free history. If you maintain a claims-free record for a specified number of years, you will be offered a no-claims discount each year when you renew your policy.
• Don’t be shy about asking insurers for any additional discounts available, and making sure that you qualify for any other discount that is going.
