Rural fires We know living in the country is a great way of life but if a fire does start in a rural area, it may take longer to detect and longer for emergency services to respond. We've got advice for you to be as prepared as possible.

Electrical fires The majority of significant farm and commercial building fire claims over the past 5 years were a result of an electrical fault. But there are ways to protect your buildings and help prevent loss and interruption to your business.
