When purchasing drone insurance, we understand that the price is pivotal to your business as it is crucial to consider all financial outgoings. However, it is essential that you balance the cost against risk and consider the quality of the policy that you are purchasing. Every business must keep a watchful eye on their outgoings, so getting a good deal is essential, but buying the wrong cover or not insuring correctly can also prove to be false economy.
The aim of UAV insurance is to make sure that commercial flyers, their drone kit, and critically the public are properly covered in the event of an accident. Whether that’s a liability issue, damage or personal injury, there needs to be a satisfactory solution for all concerned. Cutting corners on drone insurance can never pay dividends in the long term. Purchasing your policy with Coverdrone, gives you complete piece of mind in that you are obtaining the highest quality product whilst paying a competitive rate.

Is Your Drone Insurance Policy Flexible?
Is your policy able to cover any changes that your business might encounter during the policy period? It is inevitable that change will occur, therefore Coverdrone offers clients the flexibility that is required to run a successful commercial business. The client is always in control of their policy and can make changes to the level of public liability or hired in equipment cover at any time at no extra charge.
Policy Coverage – Do You Have Everything Included That Is Required?
Public liability is almost a given within all drone insurance policies, however Coverdrone offer so much more than this. When considering the cost of your policy, give some thought to the variety of features which you may require.
All our policies are fully compliant with EU Regulation EC785/2004 providing both public liability and aviation liability (war risks) insurance, which are both applicable to commercial drone operators. We offer varying levels of cover to suit your requirements, all of which comply with the regulations. We can also offer employers liability and ground photography liability.
As well as adhering to regulations, Coverdrone can offer various equipment covers. If the insurer decides to replace your drone in the event of a claim the replacement will be the same make and type unless otherwise agreed with the client. There is also no restriction on the number of drones on one policy which allows you to add as many drones that your business requires.
Our policy features are not just restricted to the above, and for further information please visit our policy features page.
