Your dedicated Insurance Specialist and support team are here to assist you when you have a claim. If you are a business and require emergency repairs we can arrange someone to come out onsite to you usually within 2 hours.

In the event of an incident its very important to take steps immediately to prevent further loss or damage, regardless of whether the claim is reported or not. These could include:
• minor temporary repairs
• locating replacement critical machinery
• securing the premises or vehicle to prevent further loss

• have your vehicle towed to a secure location, if seriously damaged
• arrange for the vehicle to be covered, if necessary to prevent water damage
