Accidental damage cover is an optional extra on a home insurance policy, including renters' insurance, which will protect you in the event of an accident. 

With Allianz, you’ll automatically get cover for accidental damage to audio and audio-visual equipment up to €3,000*. This includes (but is not limited to) items such as a TV, sound bar, or surround sound stereo system, to name a few.

As an optional extra, you can add accidental damage cover for all your belongings with no limit*! 

Some other examples include (but are not limited to): 

  • Accidentally knocking a mirror off a wall 
  • Placing a hot item on a glass table and shattering it 
  • A laptop is dropped in the home 
  • Coffee is spilled on your expensive rug 

Accidental damage claims apply a standard excess of €250, meaning you pay the first €250, and we pay the rest up to the total of your contents insured. A higher excess may apply to escape of water and subsidence claims. 

*Exclusions apply. Look at pages 58-61 of the Allianz Home insurance policy document for a full list of exclusions.
