I hope this is the correct board, if not feel free to redirect me.
I would be interested to know which company do people to get their Plumbing and Drains insurance, please?

    Same here. Keep insurance for the stuff you really couldn't afford.

    Homeserve but only strategically.  When I suspect there might an issue on the horizon* and they're offering their promo £1/month rate or similar.  

    *Like when MiL was beginning to lose it and started occasionally flushing things that shouldn't have been flushed.

    Appreciate the comment,  I cannot afford the plumber's hourly rate as they are quiet high and I will check Homeserve, any reason why some post so 'don't to insurance?

    Homeserve is definitely an option worth exploring. Regarding the 'don't do insurance' posts, I think some people might be skeptical due to past experiences with insurance companies or concerns about policy limitations. Others might prefer to self-insure or save for potential repairs instead.
