Indemnity Insurance?
3 Answers
I'm selling my house. The chimney breast was removed and the stack is left. There seems to be a lump of steel underneath, but I suspect that the survey will recommend that the chimney stack is checked and this steel will be found insufficient. Options are: remove chimney (not possible as shared with next door); insert RSJ (not possible without removing ceilings and roof); or get indemnity insurance. Does anyone know how indemnity insurance works; what I need to get it, how much it costs and who would offer it? I realise that's a lot to ask in one question - sorry, but thanks for all answers.

As for who sells it I think you would probably be best ringing some of the larger insurance companies and if they don't offer it they may be able to advise you where to go.
