Shed insurance before new house is finished.

Page 1 of 1
Hi,

we are struggling to find an insurer for our new shed. The shed has been completed earlier than expected, and since the house build is delayed, we have a lovely new shed, but cannot find an insurer. (we had hoped to store some household goods in here but will not be doing this if we cannot get insurance.) Does anyone have any suggestions? Our usual insurer RACV will not touch it.

thank you.

Wouldn’t the shed still be covered under the build insurance? If so, then you just need to insure the contents.

No, it is not, unfortunately.
