Cascade Insurance are diamonds. They're always available whenever I have last minute needs and they have fantastic customer service. They answer the phone QUICKLY. On the one occasion they just weren't able to help me I had a call from a contact at an adjacent firm within a couple of hours. Fantastic service
I recently contacted Cascade Insurance for some additional business insurance. Their response was not only swift, but the quotation I received was very competitive. Needless to say, they secured my business and I will be using them again in the future as my other insurances come due for renewal. Thank you Cascade. ATTENTION - I have just renewed using Cascade Insurance for a second year. Absolutely brilliant service and the quote was only £20 more than last year. Excellent service and I will stick with Cascade 🙂
Cascade have looked after my business insurance for many years now. With Julie, John and the team I know I am well looked after and that my insurance cover is just right for my business.

I have used Cascade Insurance Services for a number of years, the main reason is that they provide the correct level of cover for my business, always happy to healp and get to your business to give you the right cover.
We've been using John at Cascade for a good few year now, we couldn't be happier with their depth of knowledge and honesty. Always reading the small print to make sure we are properly covered. Thank you Cascade

Cascade Insurance have helped me for a number of years with both insurance cover for home and business. The experience is always the same; expert assistance from John, Julie and their team, with competitive quotes, but more importantly, the right cover. I've recommended Cascade to family and friends and know they have had a similar excellent service from them.
Great staff at Cascade. Very personal. They have gone above and beyond to assist us with a recent claim. Highly recommend.
Have used Cascade for a few years now, very pleased with the service and how they have proactively searched for value as well as negotiated with our existing insurer.

A well deserved 5 star review for a professional service delivered by friendly & knowledgeable people. I absolutely recommend Cascade 100%. Many thanks. Sarah Rye Injection Development Garage Services, Hersden
I have worked with Julie and Cascade Insurance for over a year now and having worked with other brokers in the past I can say cascade has been the best. Julie quick grasped my business and asked me questions other brokers hadn’t. This meant that we found several areas for improvement. The main reason I have found for working with a broker is to have someone who can answer questions about policies (and find good coverage) but over the last year as odd questions have come up cascade have been able to give almost instant replies even when there have been unusual circumstances. I would certainly recommend cascade insurance to other people.
We are working with Cascade Insurance Services from 2018 and i can't praise this company enough. Julie and Vicki are always proffesional and deliver outstanding insurance service. If you need a good insurance company please get in touch with Cascade and they will look after you and your business. 5 stars is not enough

Buildings Insurance
As well as the structure of the property, a buildings policy covers permanent fixtures and fittings such as baths and toilets, fitted kitchens and bedroom cupboards and the decorations inside your home, including wallpaper.
Buildings policies usually also include garages, greenhouses and garden sheds at your home. However, cover can differ between different insurers (for example, some policies may not cover things like boundary walls, fences, gates, paths, drives or swimming pools), so it is important to check whether policies meet your needs.
Cascade can help you do this so that you get the right Buildings Insurance.
What risks are covered as standard?
Policies do vary, but most of them cover loss or damage from the following:
- Fire, explosion, lightning or earthquake
- Subsidence, heave or landslip
- Storm and flood
- Malicious damage
- Theft or attempted theft
- Water leaking from tanks or pipes
- Falling trees or branches
- Television, radio-signal or satellite apparatus breaking or collapsing
- Riot
- Impact by aircraft, other flying devices, or any vehicle or animal
Some policies also cover the cost of you finding somewhere else to stay if you have to move out of your home while repairs covered by your insurance policy are carried out. This cover is normally limited to a fixed amount or to a percentage of the sum insured.
Home Contents Insurance
This covers the value of all the belongings in your home. The possessions you would normally take with you when you move house while buildings insurance covers the structure of your home and outbuildings.
Contents insurance covers the cost of replacing your possessions if they are damaged, destroyed or stolen. It includes everything you would take with you if you moved home including your furniture, kitchen appliances, curtains, bedding, clothing, television, computing equipment and jewellery.
Types of contents insurance policy
New for old policies replace your contents at their original purchase price regardless of how old they are or what condition they're in at the time you make a claim.
Indemnity polices take wear and tear into account, replacing your items at their current value. For example, if you bought your television in 2009 for £400 and it’s valued at £200 in 2012, your insurer will pay out the lower amount if you make a claim.
What it covers
Your contents insurance will cover the cost of repairing or replacing any of your possessions that are damaged or destroyed as a result of an insured event.
Most contents insurance policies cover damage to or loss of your contents as a result of insured perils such as:
- Fire, explosion, lightning or earthquake
- Subsidence, heave or landslip
- Storm and flood
- Malicious Damage
- Theft or attempted theft
- Water leaking from tanks or pipes
Some contents insurance policies can be extended to cover items you take outside your home such as mobile phones, laptops, cameras and music players.
Legal liability cover
Buildings and contents insurance also covers some of your personal liabilities, for example if someone injures themselves while visiting your home and you are found to be legally responsible for the cause of the injury. Your contents policy will also normally provide personal liability cover for you and members of your household when away from your home.
