The Mercantile approach

When the work is difficult to insure, precision matters. We show underwriters what you do, where you do it, and how you control the risk.

01 / Specialist occupations

Built around the trade, not a broad label.

Every occupation has different methods, sites and contract requirements. Explore the details insurers need to understand.

01Drilling & boring

Ground conditions, services, depth and third-party property.

↗
02Excavation & earthmoving

Plant movements, utilities and adjacent structures.

↗
03Demolition

Methodology, vibration and neighbouring property.

↗
04Mining contractors

Principal requirements, sites and subcontracting.

↗
05Shoring & underpinning

Temporary works and structural stability.

↗

See all high risk occupations

02 / Core insurance

Public and products liability comes first.

We review the declared activities, subcontractors, limits, principal requirements and exclusions against the actual work. Design and construct PI, contract works and plant can complete the program where needed.

03 / Connected cover

01Design & construct PI

Design and professional services exposure.

↗
02Contract works

Physical works during the project.

↗
03Plant & equipment

Machinery, mobile plant and hired equipment.
