Fire insurance for semi-wooden house

[kwongheng]

Hi there,

Is there any banks or companys out there that will have fire insurance for a semi-wooden house? Its about 40% cement. The kitchen and dining room is cement, whereas the living room and the bedrooms upstairs are all wooden.

Thanks

Kelvin Wong

Contact a Insurance Broker they do the searching for you.

Just do a search for one here on the forum, many around.

Ps: I will not post the names as I might be (again) accused of working for them

We have tried to look for many banks and insurance companies but none of them will have insurance for wooden house. I have tried searching in this forum, but only found a few post which asks the question but nothing concrete regarding who to approach and the postings are dated like in 2008. I tried searching google but only links me back to the same old postings which may not even be valid anymore. For example, one reply claimed the SCB covers them but they obviously don't do that anymore as we have called them about it before. Which is why I posted this as a final resort.

So why don't you follow the previous poster's advice "Contact a Insurance Broker they do the searching for you.".

just copy and paste this in a Google search box

site:thaivisa.com/forum insurance broker

And then search from that list a insurance broker and contact them Edited December 9, 2015 by MJCM

My bad, it is not common is my country (not Thailand of course) to look up insurance brokers for house insurance. Normally we just contact the agencies themselves. I was hoping someone who already have fire insurance on wooden house to point me directly to the agency or bank who provides these insurances so that I can contact time directly. Looks like there is no choice but to look up a broker.

Thanks anyway

It is not the choice why I recommended a broker in your case, it's a lot easier, as they know their way around and especially with a difficult question as yours.

Please note: Just contact more then one broker, so you can compare their quotes / answers. Yes that is allowed here to

Great info.Thanks!

[AAInsuranceBrokers]

There are several underwriters that will offer cover for homes made from wood. Typically this is for Fire but also other options are available on the same Policy.

For examples of quotes please go HERE

Okay, just to keep peeps updated on my search...

I called AIG but they will only cover if 50% wood but our house is at least 60% wood unfortunately

Emailed the HuaHin AA brokers but they replied to say that they don't provide such coverage.

I have not called the Thai property.net yet, will try that one next
