Now more than Ever

As highlighted by the collapse of Carillion, contractor insolvency can be a risk not only for employers but on the wider construction industry supply chain.

The Coronavirus pandemic has had a catastrophic effect on the industry with the Government’s Insolvency Service recording more insolvencies in the 12 months leading up to March 2020 than any other sector.

Even with emergency legislation released by the Government to provide some protection from insolvency, the effects from the pandemic have only magnified the risk of contractor insolvency. No matter what part of the chain you are, if a contractor or sub-contractor goes bust on a project, everyone involved will be affected.

This highlights one of the many reasons why Developers should ensure their own insurance provides for contractor insolvency rather than rely on the contractor, as if insolvency occurs during the build stage, this can leave an employer at risk of being uninsured and potentially unable to get insurance cover.

“After struggling for weeks with numerous brokers to find a provider for my structural warranty policy, Alex and Compariqo took complete control of the situation and sourced me a policy which enabled me to complete my remortgage. Alex in particular was excellent and kept me updated regularly. I would highly recommend Compariqo!”

“I contacted Jacqui to compare quotes on warranty companies for the conversion of the existing house into three flats. The flats all have separate entrances and the basement level has a lightwell. I found Jacqui to be very forthcoming with information, updating me regularly with correspondence she had received from the warranty companies and a delight in general to talk to. We now go to compariqo for comparisons for all warranty companies on any new developments we have coming up.”

Excellent, prompt service and we will definitely be using you again during our next build. Both Steve and myself were impressed from our initial contact with Jaimie through to completion.

Jaimie explained in detail the insurance suitable and immediately emailed the contract for us to read. No sales pressure and responded when answers were required.

So, thank you again to you and your team at Compariqo.
