What is a Contractor Guarantee?

If you’re an independent contractor, offering a high quality contractor guarantee should form an integral part of your business.

What is a contractor guarantee?

A contractor guarantee is a term used to describe an Insurance Backed Guarantee: the guarantee that all UK independent contractors must offer by law to customers when carrying out an installation or project.

An Insurance Backed Guarantee is designed to protect you and your customers in the unlikely event of your company ceasing to trade. Available for a period of up to 10 years, and backed by a UK authorised insurer, an Insurance Backed Guarantee raises consumer confidence as homeowners will know that they are protected should your business go bust.

If, because of liquidation, receivership, administration or winding up of your business due to bankruptcy, state retirement or death, the company no longer exists, faults appearing after they cease to trade may be covered by the Insurance Backed Guarantee.

As of June 2014, all UK tradespeople must offer an Insurance Backed Guarantee with any installation they carry out. This means that finding the right guarantee that can protect you and your customers, whilst enhancing your reputation, is more important than ever.
