BLP do not place complex and impractical layers of restrictions on architects and consultants in terms of the technical standards requirements to enable the provision of our insurance policies. The construction industry requires innovators and forward thinkers; unrestricted horizons, not challenging bureaucracy.
BLP makes it possible for cover to be arranged on behalf of the developer, owner/landlord, funder or tenant and their future assignees; all parties can be covered under a single policy. The BLP product uniquely covers the structure, M&E services and components in commercial developments with one insurer, including those projects which have a residential element.

Report
Tried to get an online quote for a large building project. The online form wanted loads of information BLP would only need if they had the business, eg names and addresses of various professionals involved - TO GET A QUOTE ?? Really !! Gave up on the online form and decided to call them, they showed two phone numbers, the reply to both was "This number doesn't accept incoming calls !! I don't know who's running this business but if they worked for me they'd be getting fired today!
