    HI All

    Just looking for a bit of advice. We are considering taking out self build insurance for our build. we have had several quotes from different companies, form €1099 to €2500. one of my main concerns is that they cover most things except the scaffolding which has to be erected by a certified fully insured scaffolding company, which will cost a lot more than renting our scaffolding ourselves. also with the insurance every has to have a safepass.
    another thing is that the house is not very high and that the only scaffolding required is on the two gables so the plasterers have told me.
    if we do not take the insurance out, we have to make sure that everybody has their own insurance, which our solicitor has stated that often people will show an insurance cert but may not have been paying their premiums.

    Does anybody have any advice on this area as i am in two minds of which way to go?
    thanks

    Completely unrelated to the insurance you will more than likely need scaffold for the roof as well.
