New developments and refurbishing existing structures

We believe in developer led insurance and risk control for all but the smallest refurbishment. Whether it is annual covers that incorporate the widest contractors all risks wordings or specific contract developments we are able to advise on appropriate wordings to match the contract terms being used.

BBi Berns Brett do not restrict their service to insurance placing and welcome detailed discussions with contractors and building professionals to help guarantee that a developers assets, liabilities and future income are properly covered.
