Are your guarantees insurance backed?
As PCA approved contractors we can also offer Insurance Backed Guarantees to give you that extra peace of mind. These insurance policies are offered by GPI (Guaranteed Protection Insurance Ltd) for a one-off additional cost.
Insurance Backed Guarantees (IBG's) are available upon request and are subject to additional cost. The acceptance and provision of an Insurance Backed Guarantee is confirmed solely by the insurance provider on a case-by-case basis. IBG’s are currently supplied by Guarantee Protection Insurance Ltd (GPI) and Peacocks with an FSA regulated underwriter.
The activation of any IBG follows the PCA Code of Practice and its requirement of recording two growing seasons without evidence of JKW growth. Additional IBG's can be arranged for neighbouring properties subject to the property/owner having their own dedicated monitoring & treatment plan and contract with us.
The insurance will provide you with an extra level of protection in the unlikely event that we cease to trade. If a defect covered by our original guarantee develops and we have ceased to trade, the insurance policy will pay out for another PCA IWCG contractor member to provide remedial works.
