Affordable Premiums and Tailored Cover for Listed Buildings in Ireland
Finding home insurance for a house over 100 years old in Ireland can be a challenge. Many insurers classify such homes as “non-standard,” which often means higher premiums and fewer options for coverage. But you don’t have to settle for less!
At Top Insure, we specialize in helping homeowners of listed properties and houses over 100 years old find the right cover at competitive rates. Thanks to our strong relationships with specialist insurers, we can provide tailored policies that meet your needs without breaking the bank.
Why Is It Harder to Insure Older Properties?
Insurers typically view homes over a century old as higher risk. The reasons for this include:
- Older construction materials: These may be more prone to damage or harder to replace.
- Maintenance concerns: Older wiring, plumbing, and roofing systems can pose greater risks.
- Heritage designations: If your home is a listed or protected structure, it may require special insurance considerations.
As a result, many standard insurance providers either decline to offer cover or impose higher premiums.
