Home/boiler emergency & due for renewal

Water pouring out of my boiler this am.  Eventually got stop !!!!!! to work.  Emergency boiler cover says just enough to repair not replace.  Await callback from Admiral and visit from plummer who maintains & installed Boiler in 2007.  Home ins expires in 10 days and was maybe going to choose another cheaper company.  Should I make claim?  Should I stay with Admiral?

    Well you won't be able to make a claim for the current problems with a new company so it strikes me that you might as well claim with your current one.

    Update.... Plummer says not repairable
  • Yes, I can only claim with Admiral but as they only pay out to get a boiler going not for new, would I be better not to make a claim at all?  However, yet to find out what damage to floor if there is any.
