New Business Owner Advice

[RonnyE]

Hi all,

 

I've recently took over my fathers tree surgeon company & I'm seeking some advice,

 

Im in the process of automating certain things i.e, H&S systems, online bookkeeping, tax keeping etc

 

however I'm really struggling to find a fair & reputable insurer, I've been to pretty much everyone for a quote now & I'm not seeing fair results, may i ask who you would all recommend & that average price quoted?

 

Many Thanks

 

Ron

I've been with treesurgeoninsurance.co.uk for a few years. Costs about £2k for pl, el, plant and tools, on about £90k turnover.
Never made a claim so no idea of how good they are paying out!

I have been with Trust Insurance for years. Premiums been around £1,000 for some years, but this last renewal was £1,400, as slight increase in turnover took me to next tier. Turnover been £90,000 ish, but I predicted a rise for the year being currently insured.

 

Never has to claim, so can't comment on this aspect from them.

Been with Trust four years, they have been good paying out for my stolen gear but obviously the premium has gone up from that. PL or EL aim to never make a claim...
