Fire & Business Interruption Insurance
Protection against fire is an essential step in protecting your home or business. Fires can be devastating, leaving behind huge damage, hefty repair bills, and interrupting business. A People & Partners fire insurance policy covers the building, machine and plant, stock and other contents, making it possible for the insured to rebuild or replace damaged items as quickly as possible.PPI Insurance can cover private houses and all commercial and industrial risks, large or small. Our cover can be on fire and named perils such as storms and floods, or we can provide a Property All Risks policy, which gives very wide cover.We can also, as an add-on, insure the loss of profit or Business Interruption due to fire or similar perils.
For private houses we do not normally require a site survey, but for businesses, we offer a free risk survey on your commercial and industrial premises to assess the risks and, where necessary, suggest improvements which could reduce overall premium costs.

People and Partners Insurance PLC can arrange to extend either the basic Fire/Perils policy or the Property All Risks Policy to cover full business interruption. This cover would be following the exact perils covered by the different policies and would be based on an ‘Indemnity Period’ chosen by the Insured in discussions with our staff. This would be the longest period deemed possible by the client to get back to normal after a large material damage loss. The normal period would be at least 12 months, but it could be shorter (6 months) or even 24 to 36 months in the case of a large complex factory risk.People & Partners Insurance can also provide additional cover that most businesses should consider, including Liability Insurance.
