Fire insurance covers the damage to your premises, stock and equipment, and the right policy can also cover the income you lose while you rebuild. Cover Buddies helps you choose the cover that fits your property and your budget.   [GET A FIRE INSURANCE QUOTE](https://www.coverbuddies.com/request-information-commercial?hsLang=en) ## What fire insurance covers A basic fire policy protects against loss or damage from fire, lightning and explosion. Depending on the policy, cover can be extended to other risks such as floods, storms and landslides.   ## Types of cover for businesses - **Basic fire insurance:** the core protection against fire, lightning and explosion. It is the minimum lenders usually ask for, and it may leave other risks uncovered. - **Fire consequential loss:** pays for lost income and extra running costs while your business is disrupted by fire damage. - **All-risk insurance:** the widest cover, adding risks such as theft and malicious damage.

Cover for the income you lose and the extra costs you face while your business recovers from a fire. ### What is under-insurance? Insuring your property for less than it is worth, which can reduce what you are paid at claim time.     Read our full guide: [Essential Tips for Choosing the Right Fire Insurance in Malaysia](https://www.coverbuddies.com/en/knowledge-hub/safeguard-your-property-essential-tips-for-choosing-the-right-fire-insurance-in-malaysia?hsLang=en).
