HOW
WORKS
IT
Almost every vehicle will suffer some form of minor cosmetic damage.
Our client's claims are most typically, stone chips caused by our deteriorating roads, car park dents and scratches caused by others with no care for other people's vehicles, plus other accidental minor damage.
With our Scratch and Dent Insurance in place, your minor cosmetic repair costs are protected. Claiming could not be easier. Simply take a few digital images, call the claims team and your claim will be considered for approval.
Our insurer's will normally use of their trusted national repair contractors that have proven to given them and their policyholders excellent customer service and high quality repairs. There may be circumstances where our insurer may allow you to arrange a repairer of your choosing and approve them to carry out your repair.

FEATURES
Many policies of this type will only cover damage that falls within a 15cm diameter and some limit the 'dent depth to a miserly 3mm'. Our coverage permits damage up to 30cm and does not limit the dent depth - providing the dent can be removed using minor cosmetic repair techniques.
Some policies in the market limit the number of claims you can make and the amount they pay toward each claim, typically to £150 - £300. Additionally, some also ask you to pay an excess per claim between £10 - £50. Our cover has no limit to the number of claims and will pay up to £500 per claim, with no excess to pay up to a total aggregate claim limit of £3,000.00

Private mileage travelled during the period of insurance is not limited and up to 20,000 business miles per year is allowed. Vehicles with a pearlescent, two tone or matt finish cannot be repaired using minor cosmetic repair techniques and are not covered by this policy. If in doubt, please contact your vehicle supplier.
