Our 1930’s semi in norwich had subsidence in about 1994. Not the area, but due to previous owner putting concrete over lead water pipe and pipe springing a leak. Been underpinned, officially paid for by insurance at the time (cost about £3000).
Ever since then we have been paying very high home/contents insurance. This year is 850 ish! This does include bikes with value up to 2500 each also away from the home, it’s with Woolwich.
My husband says cant get it any cheaper, but I doubt this. He says he looked into it etc. I think we should be paying about half the amount….
Any tips on who to contact? I believe our house is less likely to suffer future subsidence than the average house… Also only claims in last 13 years were damaged fence by weather and accidental damage to rug.
Cheers
