Frequently Asked Questions
What is boiler insurance?
Hometree boiler insurance is a cover policy that provides professional repairs if your boiler encounters a fault. You’ll often hear boiler insurance referred to as boiler breakdown cover, boiler cover or gas boiler cover, they all mean the same thing.
Boiler insurance can help you better manage the unexpected and unwanted costs of repairs or a replacement if your boiler breaks down. Boiler insurance can also be supplemented with extended cover for the rest of your home.
Hometree offers plans that cover your wider central heating, plumbing, drains and electrics.
Do your policies cover all boilers?
Unlike other providers, Hometree covers all brands, makes and models of natural gas boilers, regardless of the age. So you’re more protected if you encounter a fault.
When completing your insurance onboarding, we’ll ask for the details of the boiler you are insuring. This is just so we can better serve you in the event of a breakdown. If you’re unsure what type of boiler you have, just check the logo and model number near the controls.
What is an annual service and why do I need one?
An annual service is an opportunity for a gas-safe engineer to check your system is running smoothly and flag any issues that might be developing. Most boilers last between 10 to 15 years and regular maintenance is advised by manufacturers to ensure optimal performance. Remember, servicing your boiler is less expensive than replacing it.
With all Hometree core insurance plans, you receive a yearly boiler service as part of your boiler insurance cover package. We cover gas boiler types of all ages and from all makes and manufacturers. During your annual boiler service, your engineer will complete visual checks and internal tests.
How do I arrange a boiler service?
When it’s time for your service, we take care of the scheduling process for you. We automatically allocate a skilled engineer who will reach out to you directly to arrange a convenient time for a visit. Our goal is to find a schedule that works best for you, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily routine.
What happens if my engineer finds a fault during the service?
If our engineer comes across a fault during the service visit that is not directly related to the service itself, we will take the necessary steps to address it promptly. Depending on your plan coverage we will arrange for an engineer to return with the required parts to make the repair.

What’s the difference between Hometree boiler, central heating cover and home cover?
If you’re deciding on the cover you’d like to get for your home, it’s important to know the difference between a boiler cover and central heating cover and home cover.
The Your Boiler plan covers your boiler and controls, while the Your Heating plan is an upgrade from the Your Boiler plan, and protects your entire central heating system. With this plan we’ll safeguard your radiators, valves and cylinders to make sure you don’t go without heating, no matter the time of the year. The Your Home plan includes everything in the other two plans, plus plumbing, drains and home electrics. You’ll have additional cover incase of burst pipes, broken toilets, blocked drains, faulty fuse boxes and more.*
