Insurance backed guarantees offer solid peace of mind for homeowners, giving them the reassurance that even if their installer ceases trading, they can have any workmanship defects rectified. A good IBG offers extra value to an installer’s reputation, but often, the direct benefits to the installer are limited.
Quality Assured National Warranties (QANW), the provider of insurance protection for home improvements and construction, are said to be changing that with their member perks package.
Gemma Swankie from QANW explains: “Installers understand the need to offer their customers IBGs. Really, it’s a necessity for any job they install, but why should that mean they don’t get value from it?
“With QANW membership, as well as great value IBGs for their customers, installers get extra perks to boost their businesses.
“By far the most popular perk is the free Trade Point card, which gives installers an extra 10% off any purchase, even on existing special offers and deals. Members also get discounted rates on Quotatis lead generation services, HR & Employment Law services, cyber security and fuel cards.
“We make registering jobs simple and straightforward too. QANW works closely with the major certification schemes, Certass and Fensa who let us know when our members have registered jobs with them. This means we can arrange the appropriate insurance policy for the homeowner. It spells the end of double job registration and saves time.”
