Check "smashing" home insurance this summer
Posted :

In the run-up to this year's Wimbledon tennis tournament, householders across the UK are being urged to check their home insurance for accidental damage cover.
The advice comes from Halifax Home Insurance following the group's revelation that last summer it received a high rise in the number of claims for smashed windows.
Domestic breakages and other glass smashes coincided with the tennis and football World Cup, Halifax said, with a 76 per cent increase in claims for July compared with January.
"We'd advise any budding Murrays and Sharapovas to take care when playing racquet sports close to home and check they are insured for accidental damage should a mishap occur," said Vicky Emmott, senior manager of underwriting for the home insurance provider.
Halifax also offers a range of financial products including loans and credit cards.
