GET A QUICK QUOTE FOR BUILDINGS OR CONTENTS INSURANCE IN SPAIN.
Buildings insurance in Spain is designed to cover the cost of rebuilding your entire property, not just the home part. This should include the rebuilding costs of your swimming pool, perimeter walls and fences, terraces and outbuildings, storage areas, gardens and any structures that you include in the terms of buildings cover.
If you live in an apartment in Spain, the buildings insurance is normally covered by the builder or the community Insurance. The community insurance policies in Spain may only cover buildings to the entrance to your front door, so things like internal burst pipes, that are not community water pipes, from another apartment in the same building, are not likely to be covered.
Insurance against fire and power surges would need to be covered under your personal buildings insurance policy. Trees and plants are covered to a maximum of €600 per plant or tree.
CONTRACTING YOUR OWN BUILDINGS INSURANCE IN SPAIN.
You can contract your own buildings insurance in Spain, for your own private property or for your apartment, even if they are rental properties. This is worth doing for apartments as many of the community insurance policies are limited in cover and may not be sufficient in all cases.
PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE FOR PROPERTIES IN SPAIN.
Public liability insurance is one of the key insurance benefits you should have with any house insurance policy in Spain. The cover for Public Liability Insurance in Spain can range from €300,000 to €3,000,000.
Public Liability insurance is designed to protect you, the owner or tenant, in the event that a third party injures themselves on your property and sues you for damages or injuries sustained. Swimming pools are notoriously dangerous, particularly when renting your property to families with children.
It will also cover you in the event of damages caused to any other property or vehicle in the vicinity in the event of a fire, water damage due to a leak and even cover your pet, should it bite someone coming onto your property.

The Buildings insurance will also cover you for excessive water bills if you have a water leak that has not been noticed until you receive a huge bill. They will cover excess water consumption up to €1,000 even if no damage has been done.
CONTENTS INSURANCE IN SPAIN – KEY POINTS AND BENEFITS.
contents insurance is designed to cover everything inside your property. this can include valuables and jewellery, works of art, stamp collections and anything of value. Spanish house insurance policies also consider your fitted Kitchen as contents, so remember to calculate the cost of a replacement kitchen in your contents value calculations.
It is important to value your contents correctly. Go from room to room calculating the replacement costs of everything inside the house. This includes all your white goods such as fridges and freezers, washing machines and dryers, clothing, curtains, beds and bedding, bathroom furniture and sanitary ware.
Our contents insurance in Spain will give you “new for old” cover. This means that if your Settee is damaged in a fire, they will offer you the full value (current market value) of the settee and not the depreciated value.
