We're just weighing up if its worth claiming for the damage we received. Rang the insurance so they could register our damage down, and we're just pricing up at the moment the costs. We have an excess of $150 to pay and then with the rasied premiums over the next two years it would take the cost up to $300.
The kids 12 foot trampoline got trashed (it took off like a kite, luckily only knocked down a bit of next doors fencing which they sorted themselves - Kev offered but they were out there as soon as the wind dropped repairing it.) Some of the ornamental garden lamps outside were also blown over and have smashed so will need replacing.
We're just trying to find some idea of prices so we know how much we'd be looking at - tramps seem to be around $400-$600 depending where you look, and i can't find any lamps online at all!!
You do have to think carefully about putting in a smaller claim, what the hidden costs will be over the long term.
