PHP Insurance have access to a large panel of UK based insurers, all with a minimum of an A rating. Some of these exclusive schemes are not available elsewhere. The process will start with our experts working alongside you to gather the detailed information required to ensure your business is fully insured. This includes a thorough risk assessment of all risks to your business. Our team will intuitively know the most suitable insurer(s) for your commercial insurance needs and will then obtain competitive quotations - ensuring you also have a full understanding of the differing policy benefits. The final stage - upon acceptance - is delivering your insurance portfolio via the same account management team you have dealt with since the beginning of the process.

We are not an insurance broker that only speaks to you at renewal, in fact quite the opposite! Due to our expertise and Chartered Insurance status,, many of our clients have quite complex and every changing businesses, hence the contact between PHP Insurance and our customers is relatively frequent. This could be amendments to your policies as your business changes (e.g. new premises, stock, vehicles etc) and our in-house claims management team work closely with the insurer's loss adjustor to obtain the very best outcome for our clients. It is highly unlikely the renewal of your insurance is the only contact during the duration of your policy! PHP Insurance pride ourselves on our close relationships with our customers and our proactive approach to your changing insurance requirements. The renewal process will be a comprehensive review of your commercial requirements, based on our detailed knowledge of your business and any future plans you may have.
