Plumbing & Drainage Plus
If you are a homeowner, you are responsible for the upkeep and repair of the plumbing and drainage system within your home*1 and generally responsible for the repair to the water supply pipe, from your property boundary up to where it enters your home. In some cases this responsibility may be outside the property boundary or shared with neighbouring properties. With such complex systems, if you experienced a problem such as a burst pipe or a blocked drain, it could be expensive to put right. That's why Severn Trent is introducing you to HomeServe to bring you Plumbing & Drainage Plus, for just £6 in the first year.
With Plumbing & Drainage Plus, major emergencies such as burst pipes or blocked drains and minor repairs like dripping taps are all taken care of. In an emergency, there would be no need to search for a plumber, it would take just one call to HomeServe's 24-hour, UK based helpline to arrange assistance. Plus, there would be no repair bill or excess to pay within the generous claims limit.
This limited offer of £6 in the first year ends on 24th April 2017. Any applications received after this date will be processed at £12 in the first year.

good deal - I took on this policy at the end of last year (for the same price), mainly to get a leaky drain in my kitchen (you have to wait 14 days before to make a claim). The engineer turned up, fixed the problem, all of it for £6! and I have unlimited call out... bargain!

Is it even worth that? I mean you buy this to feel like someone has your back completely so if you have a burst pipe outside in the middle of your driveway are they gonna dig to replace it for £6?
A dripping sink maybe but what about the big costs like a burst pipe inside a wall that needs to be traced?

That's how insurance works. You would not be paying £6, all the people who don't claim will be covering the full cost. Be aware that soakaways are not covered.

I took it out last year but have not needed to use it and the renewal notice has just come it @ £96.48. Will be cancelling.

Cost shouldn't be the only deciding factor. should consider service. Homeserve in past has received poor reviews and fines - Homeserve was fines £30.9m by FCA in 2014. now under witter by Aviva. Recent article in Gardian where home owners warned of price hikes if make a claim.

Thanks OP. Didn't get chance to take this deal on wife's name in December after having it for a year on mine. Was a bit concerned it was only available for customers in Severn/Trent area but looking at the Terms & Conditions it did talk about properties in Scotland coming under Scottish Laws so assume it's all good

Homeserve have a terrible reputation, I wouldn't get involved with them.

They unblocked my drain last summer, for the princely sum of 50p (that month's payment).
Can't fault them. I'll be renewing at the enhanced price next month.

I've had this cover for a few years now and always get some sort of discount from the offer price.I was offered this price by post this year at renewal time and when i rang them they told me it was for new customers only.

Try saying that you can't afford to pay more - it worked for me!!
