Football

At Goldcrest we are very proud of our ever growing books of business for Sports Professionals Insurance. We now have on our books, England footballers and England Rugby players.  Premiership footballers insurance is very difficult to get the right cover for. There are plenty of companies out there who will just quote you as a sport professional but not recognise who you are. This is extremely important as you must have the correct cover otherwise you could end up with a hefty bill. For instance a footballer in his car, with a fellow professional i.e. a premiership top 4 player, if this player was injured and the driver was not insured properly, he would probably end up with a law suit against him against loss of earnings for his passenger.

Roofer Insurance Image

Public liability insurance for roofing contractors falls under the category of a high risk trade. This is due to the heights that a roofer can work at and also the risk involving the use of heat. Liability insurance for roofers is a must for all in the trade.

To be classified as a roofer depends on the percentage of any roof works.  Any roof work that is over 20 % of your annual turnover classifies you as a Roofer.  If you under insure yourself and put yourself as a builder or maintenance man to save yourself money, then if you had to make a claim the insurers would find out exactly what you should be classified as and will deny your claim resulting in all you have paid in premiums becoming worthless and you could end up with nothing.
