When you are an employer running your own organisation and taking responsibility for its success or failure, getting the right insurance cover for both your business and your workers is crucial.
Some general policies could contain inadequacies that would leave your construction business uninsured in the event of a major loss. Therefore, you may wish to protect your company with a construction industry specific policy.
Our wide client base spans most trades within construction and we have long standing relationships with many major insurers which means we have a wider knowledge of the risks faced by our customers. We will work hard to find you a policy that suits your individual needs. For more information on your particular case give one of our specialist advisors a call.

It is an important factor and we only use insurers with A-ratings. It measures an insurer’s financial situation and allows you to predict their ability to meet on-going policy obligations. Also, there are a number of main contractors that will not subcontract works to any companies not insured with a minimum of an A- financial rating (as determined by companies such as Standard & Poor’s, A M Best, Moody’s or Fitch Ratings). By not having a financially secure insurance policy in place you could potentially be restricting your business and the contracts you take on.
To help you spread the cost of your premiums, we offer a quick and easy direct debit scheme for spreading payment over ten months. Please visit our dedicated Direct Debit page to find out more.
