What our clients say
Julie McCartney, The Publicity House
"I had to get a company car insurance policy for a new member of staff and Linda was extremely helpful.
As the sales director in question had always driven company cars he hadn't built up his own no-claims bonus and Linda was able to help me by advising me to get a letter from his old employer saying that he never made a claim whilst working for them.
She then looked around for the best deal for me and advised me to put the managing director on the insurance also so he could also use the car occasionally, which didn't cost much extra.
Not many experienced commercial insurance brokers can also deal with a local small business by holding their hand through every stage of the policy-buying process."

"We changed many years ago from various insurance companies to combine our entire private and business insurance under one roof with a broker.Having personal contact with my Weir Insurance broker helped us enormously; last year when my husband, unfortunately had his bicycle stolen. The insurers were proving a little difficult offering only a very small cash payout. When renewing one of our other policies we mentioned our concern.
It was suggested that what we really needed was a replacement bike, the money being of secondary importance in this instance.
So armed with this information received from "our Linda" we contacted the insurer to find that within 48 hours our claim was complete and we had a brand new bike delivered to the front door.
We know that the personal touch in our own business is important. In this day and age of remoteness being able to put a face to the voice at the other end of the telephone is one of the most pleasant aspects of dealing with a local company.
Weir Insurance Brokers Ltd offers and sources the very best quotes for us, we continue to recommend its services to many of our clients. Please add your own content."

"I recently asked Laura Philip (Hall) of Weir Insurance to obtain a joint quotation for me, to cover both buildings and contents insurance.She came back to me within the day with an extremely competitive quotation and not only set up the mechanism for paying the new insurance but also cancelled the previous single insurance for me.
She also provided me with a very good quotation for holiday insurance, again within 24 hours of making the request."

"Jason McGarry is my Insurance Broker. He looks after all my insurance policies, both business and personal, and the service I receive is second to none. He is very friendly, and I have his direct telephone number so I can contact him straight away.When I'm out on the road, and I call him up and ask him to do something for me, i.e. amend one of my insurance policies or if I have a problem that needs sorting , I know that once I put my phone down after speaking to Jason, it is considered done.
I am confident that the premiums I pay are competitive, and Jason ‘shops around' for me every year to make sure I get the best deal."
Andrew Linton, Northern Mailroom Ltd
"I thought I would write this short note to express my thanks to you and your staff. I would particularly like to mention Margaret Leightley.
Many examples of Margaret's professionalism and competence come to mind, especially when I recently had to insure two vehicles. She was able to deal with this seemingly awkward situation very quickly and efficiently, using her experience and in-depth knowledge of the insurance industry. I look forward to placing more business with yourselves through Margaret in the future."

"My late husband and I have dealt with Weir Insurance for many years and the staff have always been friendly, helpful and professional, especially Linda Parker, who must at times feel like screaming, but never has.
Well done to everyone at Blyth!"
