What is...
commercial combined insurance?
Commercial combined insurance is an all‑in‑one policy designed for businesses that could include covers like public liability, employers’ liability, buildings, contents, stock, under a single policy. It is designed to help protect premises‑based businesses against the usual risks that come with running a business - like unexpected property damage, forced closure, or employee injury that could lead to claims.
A commercial combined package could help provide peace of mind and financial protection in case a disaster strikes, and someone claims against you, or you need to make a claim. It can help cover legal fees and compensation, so you can focus on what’s most important - running your business.
Why do you need a commercial combined policy?
When running your business, you could run into risks, including:
- An employee suffers an injury at work
- A visitor slips and falls on your premises
- Your business equipment is stolen or damaged
- A fire or disaster disrupts your operations
- Your stock is damaged in an accidental fire
It’s worth noting that if you have any employees, then you must have employer’s liability insurance by law. Without it, you may be fined up to £2,500.
What can a commercial combined insurance cover?
Policies will vary per provider, and terms and conditions apply, so always check the small print in your policy wording to see what’s included and excluded. Your commercial combined insurance package could include:

Employers’ liability insurance

Public liability insurance
Stock and contents insurance

Commercial building insurance

Business interruption insurance
Business equipment insurance
Tool Insurance

How much does commercial combined insurance cost?
How much your commercial combined policy costs will vary, but it could start from around £1.22 a day*. The following may affect the price of your premiums:
- Extent of cover - The more additional cover you opt for, the more likely it is to be more expensive
- Your insurer - The insurer you choose may also influence costs
- Location – Where your business is located can be taken into consideration when calculating the price of your premiums.
- Business size - Larger operations with more employees, higher turnover and bigger premises typically pay more for cover.
- Type of product/service - What service or products you offer will affect your premium. For example, food production, chemicals or products for children often have higher premiums than lower-risk items like textiles or packaging.
- Equipment - Older equipment or hazardous processes could potentially increase costs.
- Claims history - If you have a history of claims such as fire, flood or injuries, your premium may be higher.
*The price is for a commercial combined policy – 10% of customers who were sold with one of our panel providers paid £445.08 or less annually (excluding any additional administration fees) between 01/01/25 & 31/12/2025. Equivalent to £37.09 a month or £1.22 a day (and excludes the extra costs for paying monthly). Your actual policy and price may vary based on your business requirements.

What is not covered by commercial combined?
One of the biggest frustrations business owners have is only learning about exclusions after a claim is declined. It’s important to read your own policy exclusions when you take it out. Common exclusions may include:
- Gradual wear and tear
- Poor maintenance
- Deliberate acts
- Professional negligence
- Some high-risk activities that may not included on your policy (for example, manufacturing explosives)
- Activities you haven’t declared
Policies vary per insurer, and limits and exclusions apply. Always check your own policy wording to see what is and isn’t included.

Commercial Combined Insurance FAQs
How do I avoid paying for cover I don’t need?
Before speaking to a broker, it’s best to consider the risks your own business faces, what you want to insure against and what you could do without. When reviewing each cover type, consider if you need it in order to give you peace of mind. If you don’t understand any insurance jargon, do your own research by reading some of our helpful guides or ask for support from a broker.
Can I use a personal policy instead of commercial combined?
Standard home insurance policies normally exclude business activities. If you are running any business activities from home – including storing stock or equipment, you should consider commercial insurance. Don't forget, you should always tell your home insurer if you are running any business activities from home.
Do I need a broker to buy commercial combined cover, or can I buy online?
It’s good to speak to a broker to ensure your business is properly insured and, to avoid underinsurance or overinsurance. Working with a broker can help you understand the questions, so you can give the right answers and get a policy that reflects what you actually do day‑to‑day.
