Comprehensive Contractors Insurance

Business insurance is our specialty and over the years, we have helped many contractors get the correct level of insurance they require without paying over the odds. Whether you are a tradesman, building contractor or operate as a high-risk trade that finds it difficult to find cover, our advisors are here to talk about your insurance. Let us take care of everything for you by tailoring a policy that is comprehensive and competitively priced.

Public Liability Insurance

It's likely that you will need public liability incorporated within your contractors insurance policy. If an accident happens involving a member of the public, this will protect your business against compensation claims for injury or property damage. Usually cover is between £1 million, £2 million and £5 million but if you are a larger corporate business, we can provide cover over £5 million.

Employers Liability Insurance

If you employ members of staff, have contractors or temporary workers, then it is a legal requirement to have employers liability insurance with a minimum cover of £10 million. This protects your business in the event that an employee is injured or suffers sickness whilst working for you and decides to take legal action. Regardless of the amount of employees you have, we are able to build this product into your policy for you.

"We have dealt with B&M Insurance for many years now and would have no hesitation in recommending them. Their service is always professional, prompt and they are a pleasure to deal with."

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Professional indemnity insurance (also known as PI insurance) is another core product associated with contractors insurance. This protects your business if negligent work or incorrect advice is provided to a client which results in financial loss for them. This may include costs for repairing the damage, any loss of earnings or compensation fees made payable by your client as a result of your negligence. We would recommend this product in case of: professional negligence, breaching copyright, sharing confidential information, defamation and loss of data.

"An efficient and professional service. It was a pleasure to be able to get through quickly on the phone without having endless recorded messages and lengthy musical delays. Our requirements were understood immediately and the quotation saved us a great deal of money. We highly recommend B & M and its proprietor Kevan Haughton."
