As far as I am aware it is usual practice (not law) for the landlord to insure the buildings, the payment would still come from you. Have you actually seen the policy ?
Whatever does your lease say about the various obligations to repair and maintain ?"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts."
