Regional UK Contractors

Insurance policies for regional contractors frequently contain standardised wording, onerous warranties and conditions that can leave you uninsured in the event of a major loss. Commonplace examples include limits on the nature of work you may undertake, unworkable conditions - relating to heat, for instance - and exclusions such as those relating to design defects.

Setting adequate limits is essential to ensure that you are adequately covered. Effective claims management and the maintenance of claims records are also key elements of your insurance arrangements.

JLT's UK Contractors team combines the expertise of the London market's largest construction practice with regional specialists. This means that we can offer you:

  • market leverage -placing over £275m construction premium annually gives us substantial influence in the market
