And got 1 million liability cover with damage to glass cover for about £70 underwritten by AXA.
Excess is steep though.

I've been impressed by Gleaming,.. they cover property worked on & many of the popular add-on services.

Post by: Crystal-clear on June 22, 2011, 08:23:47 pm: cheers guys i got my new quote from simply with a million quids to start in july 8th to be paid before then

,apparently he says for my £64 i would be covered for damage to property this included damage to glass, i asked him several times are you sure this includes damage to glass he said yes ,

looking at everyone else's prices with damage to glass maybe he is mistaken?

Post by: alanwilson on June 22, 2011, 10:14:16 pm: thats cheap - I pay about 2 grand a year to cover myself, EL, property damage etc all up to 10 million I think.

Need it for the work we do though.

I priced around everywhere and that was he cheapest I could get.
