How much building cover should I buy?
You should insure your building for the full rebuild cost, not what you paid for it. That includes the cost of labour, materials, clearing the site, and any council or professional fees. These extra costs can add 20–30% to the total rebuild value, so don’t leave them out.
I've spruced up my place; do I need to update my cover?
Yes. If you’ve renovated or added anything new (like a pool, flatlet, or even solar), it’s important to update your insured amount so you stay properly covered. You can do this quickly in the app.
Can I still insure my home if I rent out a part of it?
Yes, long-term rentals are fine. If you’re doing short-term lets like Airbnb or business rentals, we can’t cover the property at this stage.
What if my home is under a mortgage? Can I switch to Naked?
Definitely. We’re accepted by all major banks. Just send us the details of your current insurer and your bank facility number, and we’ll help you make the switch. Email us at help@naked.insure.
