What level of cover do I need?

The log cabin insurance you obtain should include all the usual perils associated with building insurance however as log cabins aren't made of traditional bricks and mortar, it's essential that you make sure it is protected against a range of damages. If there is a flood or a fire in your Log Cabin, damage to your timber framed home can be much worse than homes of standard construction.

If you are renting out your Log Cabin, then your policy should also include loss of rental income in the event of, for example, a fire.

How much does log cabin insurance cost?
