Will this help our premium?

It rarely reduces the premium in isolation — but it stops premium loading for gappy records, which is the more common outcome in Banchory.

What format does the broker want?

They want operator name, machine, cert date, expiry, refresher cadence and evidence of assessment. We deliver exactly that.

Can you cover multiple machines in one visit?

Yes — cross-machine cohorts are standard. Half a day per machine, one trainer, one paperwork pack.

When should we book relative to renewal?

Four to six weeks before renewal is ideal — enough time for us to schedule and for the broker to receive the pack before quoting.

Do you cover banksman slinger refreshers only, or novices too?

Both, in the same cohort. That's the most cost-effective way when you've got a mixed fleet.

The situation on the ground in Banchory

The broker's questionnaire this year asks for named operators, machine categories, certificate dates and refresher cadence. Anything gappy pushes the premium up or reduces cover — usually both.

How we deliver it

We tidy up the banksman slinger column of the matrix in one visit: expiring tickets refreshed, missing operators added, and a clean single-page competence report we hand you as a PDF for the broker pack.
