Kenneth Nielsen and his wife Louise bought a house in Taulov in 2020, and soon after it turned out that a load-bearing iron beam had been corroded. The insurer initially followed the recommendation of an engineer that the beam should be replaced. Later the insurance went in the opposite direction and thought well, the beam could be repaired. A single appraiser had mentioned repair as a solution. All professionals and experts believe that repair is impossible. Photo: Søren Gylling
