Wind damaged fence

Anyone know if TESCO insurance will cover my blown down fences?

It says in the info 'The structure of your home and walls, gates, fences, hedges, footpaths, etc.' but also says 'All of the above are covered against fire, storm and flood (except hedges, gates and fences), theft, vandalism, escape of water and subsidence.'

:confused:

    Well you said in the first sentence of your post it was 'blown down' so you need to accept that your insurance doesn't cover it.

    I work for an insurance company and wind damage to fences is usually an exclusion.

    Wind damage isnt even a peril.

    Its storm that you are talking about, and as above it wouldnt be covered.
