Brits have been urged to avoid making a claim on their home insurance over Easter by taking care when doing any DIY.
According to esure, the average homeowner has over £5,000 worth of electrical goods and gadgets in their house.
Therefore it is advisable not to embark upon too ambitious a DIY project unless a home insurance policy includes accidental damage cover just in case any home improvements go wrong.
Mike Pickard, head of risk and underwriting at esure, said: "For anyone thinking about attempting DIY jobs around the home this Easter weekend, having ample buildings and contents insurance, plus accidental damage cover to foot the bill of any DIY mishaps, is definitely worthwhile."
Meanwhile, making sure garden items are properly covered in any policies is also advisable, as Marks and Spencer has revealed that most people have around £700 worth of plants and greenery in their backyard.
