24/7 online and on-call customer service for your house insurance claims and questions.
Use the Cordell Sum Sure calculator to figure out how much you need to insure your home for. This is really important because it informs your ‘Sum Insured’ amount, which is the most we’ll pay for a total loss claim – for instance, if a natural disaster took out your property. It should reflect how much it would cost to rebuild your home and account for rising building costs, inflation, demolition costs, consents and other fees.
Insure your contents with us too and you could save with our multi policy or Homepack discounts.*
