pv liability insurance

[poheZ]

i GOT A QUOTE FOR £600+vat FOR LIABILITY INURANCE WORKING IN PV. IS THAT GOOD?

WHAT DO OTHER PEEPS PAY?

 

[Markc]

Sounds about average. We added onto our existing policy for electrical contracting with little problem.

 

[Kram]

Hi

Can someone tell me what specifically is being covered for the extra cost on top of the normal electrical contractors public liability insurance?

Thanks

Mine went from £120 combined PL and EL to £180 with PV added (upto 11m working at height), cant remember who it is with as broker sorted it out, standard electricians policy only covered working up to 3m which I didnt know, glad I never fell off that scissor lift!

Think I (we) need to know your broker Noshocks! Ours is to 14mts (Newer 3 Story properties was our thought) 2 x Partners and 3 x employees. One of them under 25. We pay £540 (ish) a year combined PL & EL. Not that our broker knew what the hell PV was and what is was all about or even what class to insure us under!

I've just been quoted £2040 to install Solar PV plus 1 employee and 1 occasional employee (PL and EL)!
Can someone advise of a decent company please.

Help!

[saint]

[MorganPVI]

Not at the £200 price, that quote was without employees / direct labour.

Good God - we paid £1400 for public liability and employers liability for 2 employees. We did go for 5 million cover so we could bid for housing association tenders but that only increased it by £100 or so. A friend with a business with 10 emplyees has been charged in excess of 4k!! Can you share the info about your cheaper options please??

 

[Noshocks]

Mine was with underwritten by 'Brit insurance', never heard of them but price is right.

Can some one help me out with a broker please. Still cant find a decent price for PL and EL. I've been quoted £2245 via broker for cover with MMA. PL £2m EL for me as director and one other £10m with £2500 tools cover.
Markc - you pay about 540 for this!!
thanks

£5M P/L, E/L for 3 persons and 14mt height. NO TOOLS included. £540 a year. We have been trading 40years and in East Anglia. It will make a difference. We also have to pay a one off fee of £210 for every Church we work in (Electrical Contracting side) if the work is over £5K and more than 3 days. For the PV side it covered us up to 14mts and 2 persons.
