Like all good things in life, your log cabin is going to need insurance. Insurance is a bill we pay every year, for house, car, health, even pets, and if we all hope and pray that we never have to use the policy!

Your log cabin, like all good things in life, is going to need insurance.

What insurance companies cover log homes?

But insurance is not a problem for log cabins Ireland. Most companies will give you insurance for your log cabin, log home or garden chalet, log cabin or granny flat.

We did a quick google search and found the following:

Non-standard home insurance from OBF: https://www.obf.ie/non-standard-homes/

Holiday Home Insurance from Allianz: https://www.allianz.ie/holiday-home-insurance/

Log cabin insurance form Intasure: https://www.intasure.com/logcabin/

Log cabin insurance form Assetsure: https://www.assetsure.com/homes/log-cabin-insurance/

As usual, its important to shop around for insurance. Money is money, as they say, and its beter in your pocket than theirs, so be sure to spend a bit of time on the phone. If you spend an hour calling and save a couple of hundred euro, you won’t earn that hourly rate too often! Why not reward yourself with something special if you make a big saving? A nice botle of wine if you save €75, a meal out if you save €150 – you get the idea :-)

Insuring a Log Cabin Granny Flat

Often, if a log cabin is built in a garden, it is possible to include your log cabin or log cabin granny flat on your existing home insurance policy as an outbuilding. This is a pretty painless process, and, depending on your company and the size of your log cabin, might not cost you a penny!
