    Hi there,

    House undergoing renovation
    Mobile home AND portacabins used for accomadation etc while said works are being carried out.
    3 cars and 2 vans + no its not a business
    I am being quoted some 'far out' prices and on another forum got given a telephone No but it was a 'dead end' (..no longer in use, etc)

    well it probably would be into four figures, as you want to cover the house being renovated, with EL and PL, the caravan you are living in, your contents, the portacabins as well as the motor vehicles.

    ballpark, house would be in the region of €1500/2000. caravan perhaps €500, portacabins perhaps the same, two small vans at say €400 each and 3 cars at €600 each.

    That comes to nearly €6k. What were you quoted?

    Its near impossible to give you even a ball park figure for this due to the lack of information provided.

    There are a myriad of questions you would need to give answers to.

    Even the basic questions on the cars and vans.

    What type of vehicles are they - makes,models,values
    Who is going to be driving them - do you need open drive,are there young or provisional licence holders going to be driving
    No claims bonus - how many years on each vehicle
    Class of use - will you need specific commercial cover on them,do you do deliveries

    And thats on the vehicles alone.You really didnt expect to get any type of an idea based on the bare bones information provided did you?

    Hi Perry stanley,
    did you manage to get your insurance? I'm trying to get insurance for a house under renovation wit employers and public liability. Finding it quiet difficult. Did you manage to get it in the end?
