What happens when the interruption is interrupted? Michael Wilson - Flaxmans Regional Director The Red Lion Hotel suffered a fire in March 2019.  It was a thriving business through its drinks and restaurant activities as well as a successful B&B offering.  After some delay, the material damage claim was agreed and it was estimated it would take 18 months to reinstate the damage to the building and contents. The policy contained BI cover with an indemnity period of 18 months. On the 12-month...

Firstly, it is important to say that the word “pandemic” does not denote the characteristics or seriousness of a virus or disease. Rather, it is a word that distinguishes an “epidemic”, being a disease that affects one or a few nations from a disease that affects all (Pan) nations, i.e. all nations in the world; hence “pandemic”. However, the seriousness of the current pandemic is not measured in medical and health terms alone. It is also likely to have a severe effect on...

Flaxmans continue to be involved in supporting a number of Doncaster residents whose properties were damaged by the floods in early November 2019.  Very few claims have been declined altogether, but we are still finding that some are taking an inordinate amount of time to really get going.  Three such residents have yet to even agree with their loss adjusters whether or not damp plaster needs to be removed before the drying out process can be completed. For the record, Flaxmans...

However, the consequential effects of it on the local populace are still being felt; especially by businesses that were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Twas the night before Christmas, When all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, Not even a mouse. The Christmas lights were twinkling, But the tree was very dry, No one had watered it, The pines were falling, it might even die. Dry trees and Christmas lights, Can cause your house to burn down, No presents for anyone, Or Christmas Dinner to be found. So, check your lights aren’t faulty, And give your tree a drink, Switch off the lights first, Singed hair gives off an awful stink. Flaxmans Christmas Quiz Christmas can be a time...

Before the event: “A necessary Evil: A Waste of Money: I can’t be doing with it.” After the event:  “I never expected it to happen to me!” Nothing in life, except perhaps the knock of the taxman, causes the hackles to rise more than the agony of buying business insurance. The cost is an annoyance, at best, and very difficult to measure in terms of value for money, and so it typically gets the lowest of priorities in business life. That is...
