Folkestone has been our home since 2004. Our office is by the harbour, and many of our clients are within walking distance. You can drop in with your renewal documents, and we will go through them with you over a coffee.

What Folkestone businesses ask us about

Many of the town’s buildings are Victorian and Edwardian conversions, so rebuild values and non-standard construction come up often for landlords. For hospitality clients around the harbour, it is about business interruption cover that reflects a busy summer season.

We also look after contractors working on the town’s regeneration and on housing developments around the town.

What we see in Folkestone

A large private rented sector, with many period conversions into flats
A growing food, drink and independent retail scene around the Harbour Arm and Creative Quarter
Businesses serving the Channel Tunnel terminal at Cheriton

From Folkestone clients

Sarah found our rebuild values were years out of date and sorted the whole portfolio onto one policy. When a leak went through three flats last winter, Tom handled everything with the adjuster. I didn't have to chase once.

After our kitchen fire I was terrified we would lose the business. Clearline got an interim payment agreed in the second week, so we could keep paying the team.
