  ian be very carfull who you choose to regards of were you work etc , as alot of insurers will not insure you , for example high risk areas such as chemical plants etc , this is classed as high risk and your normal cover insurance companies do not deal with such insurance etc , all the named on this thread i cannot have insurance with because of this issue etc , if you dont work in these areas theres no prob of course , but just b aware that you may not be insurered depending on working locations etc !

  Regarding Direct Line insurance, If I remember correctly they will ask you a question about whether you use any equipment that generates more than 90dba of noise. If you answer Yes, they will not insure you....
  
  I did anwer Yes a few years ago as every bit of maintenance equipment we seem to use geneates more noise than this, including our Hayter mowers at the time. I did point out that probably most trades use machinery that makes noise. The answer was that their Underwriters had placed this limit on their policies - useful eh ?
