Our advisors can work with you to perform an adequacy test for business helping us both understand the risks you face for things like business interruption, stock, contents etc. In some cases we can even visit your business premises to give the most confidence you’re not underinsuring or over insuring yourself.
By looking at your business turnover based on your specific market and location we can provide truly specialised cover and work with you to keep the cost to a minimum. Understanding the risks of your industry can provide insight into where you may need the right protection and how you can save in other areas.
We can source a policy that not only includes the basics like buildings, contents and stock insurance, but also many optional extras including work away cover, goods in transit insurance and marine cargo protection for land air and sea. Meaning together we can create a tailored policy with the cover to suit your business’s individual requirements.
Managing and reducing your risk as a business can help lower your premium.

Discounts are available for levels of building security, length of time trading, claims free businesses, combining business insurance with buildings insurance and more. Our advisors can help you find ways to mitigate risk and negotiate discounts on your behalf.

Insurance for warehouses, wholesalers, manufacturers, workshops, factories, importers and hundreds of commercial properties and businesses is also known as commercial combined insurance.
It covers a variety of risks including commercial liability insurance and business insurance cover and is tailored for each client to build a package which suits the needs of your business.
Business insurance is not as simple as home insurance or car insurance. When a commercial insurance policy is put together, your business will be assed for potential risk on a case by case basis. Having a previous claims on your business insurance means that a potential risk caused an incident of some kind, and what brokers and insurers want to know is what was done to minimise that risk to avoid it happening again. In some cases, if we can show the lesson was learnt and the risk is subsequently now lower, this can help you avoid any rises in premium.
Possibly not if they have their own insurance. However we do offer contingent liability for bona fide sub-contractors. All contractors should have at least the same level of public liability cover as you. Speak to one of our advisors to discuss your circumstances.
In most cases UK businesses with any amount of staff, whether they are full time, part time, volunteers, interns or freelance staff will need employers’ liability insurance as a legal requirement. One of our advisors will be able to add this to your quote or to your policy at any time you take on a member of staff.
When you take out or renew a policy including employers' liability insurance with us we will provide you with a certificate of employers' liability insurance that will state the companies covered by the policy. This must be displayed where your employees can read it. You may display your certificate electronically but if you choose to do so you must ensure that your employees know how and where to find it and have reasonable access.
