– You smell the sharp oil earlier, but it’s been washed out a portion in that the water level has gone up and down here, says Svein Fuglerud.
He stands by a crater next of his house at Tranby in Lier. The reason is dug out of the insurance company Tryg contractors. It was VG who first publicized case.
In the stately house has several family companies created great memories, but now it has not lived here in over a year. Although they have tried to get away oil spill in the ground has the smell sat in the house.

– one should not be too long inside before you get a headache, says Fuglerud.
it was at Christmas 2014 that tank car filled 500 liters of heating oil at the wrong house. In the house of Fuglerud idea was disconnected and all oil flowed into the ground.
Got health problems
In January 2015 began Fuglerud wife feel bad. Then we had the oil smell started to come into the house. The smell worsened. In May the family move.
– It was like that was real bad with nausea and headaches. There was no doubt what the reason was, says Fuglerud.
CREATED hEALTH PROBLEMS: Large amounts of fuel oil under the house to Fuglerud Lier has led to health problems for the family.

But it would prove that the problem could not be solved with house insurance. Homeowners may even prove that there was a link between health problems and the oil tank in the house.
– It has been a struggle, says Fuglerud.
Combating insurance
the family wants a new house that they can live in without fear of oil pollution, but the insurance company Tryg says no.
Fuglerud must choose to repair the house or getting paid the money it will cost to get the repairs done.
– In this case it made an assessment, a so-called discretion. A surveyor appointed by Tryg and a surveyor appointed by the customer have agreed on how the damage must be repaired, communication manager at Tryg, Ole Irgens.
NOT nEW hOUSE: Ole Irgens, communication Tryg, said that the purpose of insurance is that the landlord will regain the house as it was before the injury, but says that the landlord must repair rather than building new ones.

– to redevelop the ground under the house and build as big a house will cost several million more than both you and oil suppliers its offer and insurers together have offered. Why should people make when the result will be worse than it was before the injury?
– On the contrary, the purpose of this insurance that the customer will get back in their house so it was said Irgens.
– chilling
According to the contractors the family has been in contact with it will cost more to repair the house than to build new.
– We have been in contact with entrepreneurs who say that it is only foolish to repair. Tryg rejects this blank. I find it quite outrageous that they will not look at the facts on the table, says Fuglerud-law Ragnhild Guddal.
– If this continues the way it does so I do not know, says Fuglerud said. He fears that he must go to court.
– I have no choice.
TO cOURT: If insurance company continues to stand on their looks not Fuglerud no other solution to the problem than going to court.
