Insurance Broker Bournemouth | Local Support for Homes, Landlords & Businesses
Bournemouth is one of the South Coast’s most desirable places to live and work. With miles of coastline, a thriving tourism sector, and a strong property rental market, it faces unique insurance challenges. Properties near the seafront can be exposed to storms and flooding. Holiday lets and seasonal businesses have fluctuating income and occupancy. Student landlords manage high-turnover tenancies. Local businesses often rely on tourism, footfall, and digital services.
Jensten Insurance helps homeowners, landlords, and businesses across Bournemouth and Poole get the right protection in place. By working with a local insurance broker, you get more than just a price, you get tailored advice, access to a wider panel of insurers, and support throughout the policy lifecycle, from quote to claim.
Bournemouth Insurance Services
Residential Insurance
Bournemouth’s property landscape is diverse, spanning Victorian townhouses in Westbourne, modern apartments in Boscombe, and coastal flats in Alum Chine. Local homes can face specific risks such as salt air corrosion, coastal storm exposure, and flood risk in lower-lying areas.
Our home insurance options are designed to reflect these factors, including:
- Buildings and contents cover for standard and non-standard homes
- Coastal and flood zone protection
- High-value contents and valuables cover
- Rebuild cost protection and listed building insurance
- Cover for second homes and unoccupied coastal properties
We work closely with homeowners to ensure cover aligns with the property’s location, structure, and usage.
Landlord Protection
Bournemouth’s strong rental market is shaped by student housing, coastal holiday lets, and traditional long-term rentals. Each property type has different insurance needs.
Our landlord insurance includes:
- Buildings and contents cover for residential or holiday lets
- Liability cover for tenants and guests
- Loss of rent protection and legal expenses cover
- HMO and student let insurance for high-occupancy properties
- Multi-property and portfolio cover
From student houses in Winton to Airbnb lets near the seafront, we help landlords protect their investments against storm damage, liability claims, property damage, and income loss.
Business Insurance
Bournemouth’s economy is built on tourism, hospitality, retail, and a growing digital sector. Many businesses depend on footfall, coastal trade, and seasonal visitors. This brings both opportunity and risk.
We provide tailored business insurance that can include:
- Public and employers’ liability insurance
- Professional indemnity and cyber cover
- Stock, tools, equipment, and commercial vehicle protection
- Business premises and interruption cover for coastal incidents or unexpected closures
- Specialist packages for hospitality, retail, trades, and creative sectors
Whether you run a café on the seafront, a retail unit in the Triangle, or a digital agency, we help ensure your business can recover quickly from unexpected events.
Personal Cover
Bournemouth residents also rely on us for personal cover that matches their lifestyle, including:
- Car and van insurance, including electric and multi-vehicle policies
- Life and critical illness cover
- Income protection for freelancers, contractors, and company directors
- Travel insurance for frequent travellers and holidaymakers
We take into account location, lifestyle, and risk to help ensure you are properly covered.
