Home Insurance including Home emergency

I'm currently comparing prices for home (Building and Contents) Insurance. The current one we have is with Tesco Finest. I know it is rather expensive but it does include Homeserve and credit report.
The credit report part doesn't really bother me. I can check the credit report every other month for about £6 plus our bank would notify us if there was suspected suspicious activity on our bank account.

The main question I have is is there any other insurance company that includes a Homeserve policy with their insurance (for boiler breakdown, electrical faults etc)
If not then the alternative is separate home emergency cover (an alternative to Homeserve)

    Direct Line Home Plus does.

    There are a few insurers where you can add it on as an extra - Churchill, Prudential, Nationwide.

    Check carefully as a lot of these policies only cover you for emergency repairs and some only offer temporary fixes.
