I paid circa 350 euro for my house insurance last year, I just received my renewal notice and the cost for this year is over 500 euro.
I have a three bed 1000 sq ft semi detached in Dublin, rebuild cost 230,000 euro and contents 45,000 euro.
The terrace of houses I live on had subsidence problems (built on a riverbank) and it has now been sorted by the builders insurance (new foundations, houses rebuilt in the last two years).
It is noted on my insurance policy that subsidence claims are excluded.
I rang around last year and due to the previous subsidence no other insurer would insure me but I feel that over 500 euro is very expensive. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
