We’ve been providing insurance to Camera Operators & Sound Recordists for over 20 years. In that time we’ve handled hundreds of claims and we’ve not had a single complaint. Our administration and claims service are second to none.

What our Insurance Policy Covers:

Our standard policy provides New for Old, All Risks Insurance for your equipment anywhere in the UK & Europe or Worldwide. It includes cover for hire of alternative equipment free of charge.

You can then add any of the following options: 
Hired In Equipment (including free loss of hire charges cover)

  • Public Liability
  • Employers Liability
  • Professional Indemnity
Our policies are extremely competitive. We’ve often charged half of what a client’s previous broker has been charging.

Our policies are also very flexible: We don’t limit the amount of equipment you can keep in your vehicle, or ask you to remove it at night. Nor do we insist you have an expensive alarm at your premises.

If your insurance is due in the next month please complete the form below, email us or give us a call for a quote. It will take less than 5 minutes and there’s no hard sell.

If your insurance is not due, why not fill out the form, email your renewal date to us and we can contact you nearer the time, and save you the hassle of remembering when you have better things to do?

FAQs

Got a question? We’re here to help.
  • What is a New for Old policy ?

    Under a new-for-old policy you will recieve the brand new repalcement value of your equipment, not the second hand value.

  • What is "All Risks" wording in my policy ?

    This is a type of equipment insurance policy which provides a very broad level of cover. In our policy it also includes cover for hire of alternative equipment free of charge.


    On an All Risks policy this will still contain some specific exclusions that we will point out to you.

  • Can I add other cover to my Insurance Policy ?

    Yes you can, you can also add the following onto the policy at any time.


    • Hired In Equipment (including free loss of hire charges cover)
    • Public Liability
    • Employers Liability
    • Professional Indemnity
  • What Insurance do Sound Recordists need ?

    Every Sound Recordist requires slightly different cover.  However most will want to start with cover for thier equipment and many will also wan tto covre hired in equipment.


    You should also have some Public Liability insurance too, because third parties and their property also need looking after. If you accidently damage something or someone, you can be sued for compensation. Public liability insurance means your insurer picks up the tab instead.


    If you have employees (including part-timers, unpaid helpers, temps and interns) the Health and Safety Executive wants you to have employers’ liability insurance. This is a legal requirment.


    If you value your brand reputation, it’s good practice to carry some Professional Indemnity insurance. This will cover you should a client be unhappy with the work you have done.  We include this within all our policies as standard as it's that important.
