Comments (3)Thanks, Yea we were just struggling to pin down when and what would be covered by our current insurer.. I think as long as we’re in the house overnight we’ve covered. And if we’re not then we need to let them know and there are exclusions. Felt very painful trying to clarify at the time, which is why I wondered what others have done. Thankfully I think we’ll be alright!...See MoreWhat are your opinions or experiences with building a prefab home?
Comments (18)I would recommend, without qualification, a Dan-Wood home. I had one built and after completion of the foundation to the Dan -Wood requirements, the first lorry from Poland, plus troops. arrived at 0700 hrs on the Monday. I moved into the fully completed eco house six weeks and three days later. All the builders were trained in the factory and worked quietly and consistently. As the build developed the trades changed to the building needs, electrical, plumbing, roofing etc. The first lorry had the downstairs sections and was loaded in Poland in the order required on site. Nothing touched the ground. The next lorry from Poland arrived within five minutes of the first leaving. The house was pressure tested on completion and lost only 2% leakage. I cannot understand why we tolerate building in silly brick sizes glued together with mortar and dependent on the 'training' and 'skill' of the labour. Everything was delivered and installed in an organised and managed way and I would be happy to discuss further if anyone is interested. Dan-Wood also took care of the planning for £600 which is remarkable. There is a 20 year structural warranty included as well. There is a prejudice against timber framed houses in the UK for reasons that escape me but these houses are factory made and everything fits, all rooms are square and exactly as the plan dimensions. There is no downside. Alan Latham...See MoreIt's about building insurance for an extension and open plan remodel
Comments (3)You should find out from your developer whether he has a license for these types of works and services and issue a contract with him in which all types of work that he must perform will be prescribed. You should also find out if he has the necessary insurance policy. Next, you should contact your insurance company and find out if these types of work are possible in your home and whether insurance covers them. If your policy expires soon, in your place, I would compare insurance companies in your area to find the most profitable policy, taking into account the changed conditions....See More- 2 years ago
