If you operate or are responsible for any type of business entity or commercial enterprise, in order to obtain the right insurance for the company you will need to find and compare suitable commercial insurance quotes. A quote is an offer of certain defined insurance covers in a policy for a monetary price.
Quotations can be obtained from numerous sources including locally from specialist high street insurance brokers, over the phone companies insurance or brokers, or from the many online companies and comparison sites offering all types of insurance cover.
A commercial insurance quote forms a legal offer and is the basis of the contract of insurance between the proposer and the underwriting company.

Prices offered can fluctuate and a premium offered one week may not be available the next.
Quotes and premiums can be obtained for all business types and all business and commercial risks for both business liability and property insurance, either separately or combined in what is known as a package.
Commercial property insurance will typically provide cover for buildings and contents of business concessions of varying types and sizes. For example a shopkeeper would be interested in covering his glass shop front and shop stock while a small draftsman business would require a price for covering the business office equipment. For this reason quotes for a business are often given by insurance companies for packaged policies that are property specific, such as shop insurance quotes or office insurance quotes.
When looking for cover search for companies that offer quotes for your particular type of building. Let property buildings only insurance quotes are available for landlords who just want to cover the buildings, fixtures and fittings. Equally commercial property tenants and lease-holders can obtain quotes that only cover the contents, stock or liabilities.
Liability quotes can be obtained with either combined property insurance packages or as a standard quotation for individual business liabilities. The most popular liability products quoted for are public liability insurance, employers liability insurance, product liability insurance and professional indemnity insurance.
Commercial liability quotes are readily available online for most trades and professions. Packages often offer all risks cover and if you are looking online most systems allow you to pick and choose various liability coverage options
When comparing quotes online you will not have the assistance of a broker to advise you. It is vital therefore to ensure that you check that the levels of indemnity and covers offered are sufficient for your business, because levels of commercial insurance cover quoted for, can vary as often as the price.
