“BRIDGE HAS KEPT US FOCUSED FOR TWENTY YEARS”

The construction company Huurman Leiden was established in 1897 and is probably one of the oldest construction companies in the Netherlands. From a tradition based on delivering excellent work and optimal service, the business has developed into a reliable partner. The relationship with Bridge was already established when director Bart Kortman joined the company in 1996: “I like that they keep you focused.”

FAST AND PROFICIENT

The construction company Huurman Leiden has placed a range of insurances with Bridge, including CAR/assembly, corporate liability, buildings, inventory/goods, work equipment and pension insurances. Bart: “There are various different structures when it comes to construction projects. Sometimes you are the main contractor, sometimes a subsidiary partner and sometimes a subcontractor. Each of these has their own obligations and responsibilities. Clients have strict requirements for each situation. I often notice that everyone has questions about the contractor’s rights and obligations. I pass this on to Bridge and they quickly come back to me with a good and expert answer which allows me to immediately give the right answers to those asking the questions.”

THE SAME WAY OF THINKING

Huurman undertake many projects where the sensitivity to damage is a little higher, for example renovating listed buildings or inner-city work. Bart: “If needed, Bridge will contact the client to obtain any information they need in order to provide us with the appropriate advice. I value this proactivity. Leaving something with them eases your mind a great deal, because you know that they will deliver a quality solution. You know that they are in control, and that is very reassuring.”
