As we strive to understand our proposers business models, we are always open for discussion on additional trades that make up the UK SME market, that don’t immediately mirror those eligible trades and project types specified above.

Typically these will include high value timber frame risk, heavier civil engineering risk, or more generally where watercourse proximity is present, as examples’. We would be pleased to discuss matters in more detail with you, on an individual risk by risk basis.
