Established in 1912 and now in the hands of the fourth generation, H Bell & Sons are a renowned Construction Company based in Rochdale. Working across the public and private sectors from hospitals, schools and major public buildings including Town Halls to beautiful restaurants and private dwellings, the company has worked with Munro Greenhalgh for over 20 years.

Louise Scott, Company Secretary, commented, “The Construction sector is honestly a minefield, and the importance of insurance cannot be overstated. Our relationship with Stephen and the team at Munro Greenhalgh is vital to the everyday running of our business – put simply, they understand our needs. I know that I can pick the phone up and Stephen will give me an answer straight away and it is this peace of mind that grows trust and loyalty. Insurance is a big part of everything we do – from being a requirement in all tenders, to Stephen providing us with a pre-qualification service for ensuring all our sub-contractors have the right insurances, to supporting us through any claims process. We have all our personal and commercial insurances with Munro Greenhalgh and would recommend them to anybody who likes to speak to a human that understands us as a business”.

Stephen Cadman, Director, Munro Greenhalgh, said, “H Bell & Sons are a great company, committed to various Rochdale charities and loyal to local and independent like-minded businesses. Our relationship is based on mutual trust, and they like to do things right. The construction industry is fast moving, and cover requirements are forever changing – for instance the protection against cyber-crime. We greatly enjoy working with H Bell & Sons, sharing the same ethos and approach to business.”

Compudal Ltd – Chris Dalziel:
“Munro Greenhalgh have been with us from the beginning – since we started Compudal in 2008. We need them to understand our business and to be quick to react. They have, over the years, managed to minimise our premiums significantly whilst also identifying new areas of risk. I would say that they are an integral part of our business and a pleasure to deal with.”

Nick Brown, Director, Munro Greenhalgh:
“For Compudal we arrange policies for Fleet, Business Combined, Marine Cargo & Business Travel. They are involved in the sale of IT equipment, consumer electronics, perfume amongst other lines.
