And with so much else on your hands, you don’t have time to waste buying business insurance.

You work hard, and that’s why AXA make insurance easy

We offer no-nonsense, built-to-fit cover you choose to suit your needs, meaning you can get protected in your tea break - and still make it to the next job on time.

Public liability insurance

Accidents can happen, no matter how careful you are. And if you’re hit with a claim without the right sort of insurance, you’ll need to pay any costs out of your own pocket.

Public liability will cover any costs arising from a claim, in case of accidental injury or damage to a third party or property caused by work that you do.

With AXA, you’ll get:

  • Up to £5 million protection
  • Cover for legal defense costs and compensation
  • Protection for temporary staff – up to 50 days a year free
  • Access to a 24/7 expert legal advice helpline

Our cover will start protecting you instantly, plus you’ll have a certificate of insurance you can pull out to show clients whenever you need it.

What other insurance can I get for my trades business?
