I noticed that Tower are including Sea surge and are looking to increase their house premiums because of this. Anyone know anything about this?

Hi @Littlejohn. Yes that is correct. I am doing some research on the definition of Sea surge. I am actually aware of of Sea surge being added to a policy and Tower notifying the owner prior to the owner renewing. The owner has indicated a 45% increase on 2025 premium rate.
