hellopaul Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Hello, I've recently purchased a barn for conversion, and need some insurance. I've been quoted £2300 for 18 months (~£1500 per year) which seems quite steep, so I was wondering approximately how much other people are paying for insurance, and how hard they found it to even get a quote (I'm not finding it an easy process to even get anyone prepared to quote at all!). Thanks, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours was about the same price and covered Site caravan and content, own plant but not hired. We bought our own telehandler, digger and dumper. We did it through ProTek At the time they didn't do the structural warranty though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Paul We are just asking for quotes Last time we covered public liability and the house and garage against fire and vandalism As soon as you start covering plant and tools The insurance seems to jump up £605 four years ago with Protect Be careful not to have to extend for a short period as they charged nearly the same for an extension of 6 months Edited February 6, 2022 by nod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epsilonGreedy Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 The rebuild cost influences the premium. My last 12 month premium was about £500 with £10k cover for the static caravan but no tools or plant hire insurance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
