"When I contacted Bira for a recommended shop insurance broker, I was immediately directed to Ascott Insurers. I spoke to Jamie, told him my needs and he was on the ball right from the get go. I was really impressed with his grasp of my needs and the speed and quality of his responses and service. Within 48 hours I was offered a competitive quote, which fully met my needs, and I paid up and it was 'job done'. I would highly recommend giving Ascott a try for your business insurance needs. I am a satisfied new customer!"
Anne Neill, Walkers of Pottergate
"Like with any service move, it’s always something that can be time consuming, but the team at Ascott were efficient and professional, it wasn't any more time consuming than a normal renewal with a continuing insurer. Ascott have already shown that their customer service is excellent; we had an accident in one of our stores and our representative from Ascott went to the store and met with the loss adjustor on our behalf."
Karen Forret, Wilkies Department Stores

With 50+ years in the industry behind them, they have forged long-lasting partnerships with some of the UK’s leading insurers. This allows them to put together unique insurance solutions for their clients, carefully tailored to deliver the exact amount of cover you need. These are just some of the services they provide:
Property Insurance

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Liability Insurance
Liability insurance is a legal requirement for all businesses, protecting you from claims by your employees or members of the public for slips, trips, and injuries incurred on your premises, as well as damage to their properties or assets, and more.
Claims Processing
Take the stress and hassle out of making a claim against your insurance with their end-to-end claims concierge service. They handle every aspect of the claims process from start to finish, working on your behalf to get the payment you deserve.
