With Gas Boiler Breakdown cover, if something goes wrong you can rely on one of our approved engineers to get things up and running again. New customers will also get a free boiler service in year 1 – it usually takes place within the first 90 days of your cover start date.
You can now claim as many times as you like. If it’s a gas boiler breakdown, there’s no claims value limit as long as your boiler isn’t Beyond Economical Repair (BER). If it’s a Gas Supply Pipe claim, it is up to £4,000 per claim.
We’ve also added some extra features, for all new customers we’ll carry out a Boiler Health Check at the same time as your service, so we can make sure your boiler is safe and that it can be covered.
And the best bit of all is, after 6 months, if your boiler is BER and less than 7 years old, we'll replace it for free. If it is older than 7 years old, we will source, replace and install a new boiler and all you'd have to do is pay for installation.

Gas Boiler Breakdown Cover with Service meets the needs of homeowners requiring assistance in the event of a breakdown of the boiler at their property.
This policy is sold, arranged and administered by HomeServe and underwritten by Aviva Insurance Limited.
Prices include all fees and Insurance Premium Tax (IPT).
Are you covered elsewhere?
Homeowners should check if their existing home insurance or other policies provide cover, expert assistance and repairs in the event of the domestic emergencies and incidents covered by this policy so you are not paying for cover you do not need.
Are you eligible to apply?
This policy is for homeowners only. Retail, commercial and other premises used for business are not eligible, and council and housing association tenants will not need this service. The property must be your permanent private residence and owned and solely occupied by you and your family with no business use. Mobile homes, bedsits, sub-divided homes and let and sub let properties are not covered.
The boiler at your property must have a power output of less than 70 KW/hr and be fired by natural gas (and not LPG, electric or oil).
What happens after the first year?
The price will increase at renewal. Currently customers in their second year are paying £28.70 a month, £344.40 for the year for this policy (which includes the cost of the boiler service), provided they have made no claims. Your cover will automatically renew unless you tell HomeServe otherwise.
What happens if you change your mind?
You can cancel at any time. If you have made a claim no refund will be due. If you have not claimed you would receive a full refund within the first 28 days. After that it will depend when you cancel.
