Does anybody know of a search engine for building insurance which will cover my house and shop. I live in what was originally an end terraced house - two houses in fact that was coverted many years ago to a shop at the front of the property with living accomadation behind and above.
Thanks in advance. Mandy

    Internet/Direct insurance sales can handle houses easily enough but once you move off the norm, you can forget it.   You need to get your insurance through a broker. Many of whom will have a website, although a local broker may be preferable.
