Advice on how to prevent recharges<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Take out Home Contents Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n

The My Home contents insurance scheme<\/a> has been specifically designed for housing association tenants and offers a cheap and easy way of protecting yourself from the costs of accidental damage to your home. This scheme will also cover you for lost keys. You can be insured from as little as \u00a31.91 per week. The My Home 10 Reasons Why leaflet<\/a> provides more information about the scheme.<\/p>\n

There are other home contents insurance schemes available and you can compare prices on price comparison sites.<\/p>\n

Carry out the work yourself<\/strong>
\nIf a repair is required that is your responsibility, then why not carry out the repair yourself or ask a family member to help (unless it relates to gas or electrical installations or poses some form of health and safety risk)<\/strong>. This can be a much cheaper way of dealing with small, routine repairs. Our \u2018How to\u2019 videos<\/a> give some useful advice on how to carry out some typical repairs.<\/p>\n

Be vigilant<\/strong>
\nTry to prevent problems occurring by being vigilant. For example, ensure that things like nappies are disposed correctly rather than put down the toilet. This is a very common problem and is very expensive to sort out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
