<div dir="ltr"><p class="">Dave, </p><p class="">Appreciate this does not answer the question directly, but there are some names of sympathetic organisations and individuals, as well as some industry initiatives towards "non-standard" construction, with regards, mortgages, insurance and self-build, in this article; so perhaps a door crack to peer through in there somewhere:</p>

Hi, I'm about to start building a straw bale house but am finding it<br>
very hard to locate anybody prepared to write construction insurance.<br>
<br>
Does anybody know of any firms that provide construction insurance for<br>
straw bale houses in England? Who have other balers used?<br>
<br>
Thanks and regards,<br>
Dave<br>
