Fire and water are the two biggest enemies of any Dubai office or shop. We often think of Dubai as a dry place, but water damage from burst pipes or heavy seasonal rain is a major cause of insurance claims. And fire, often caused by overloaded electrical sockets or old AC units, can destroy a lifetime of work in an hour. At CoverB, we ensure your sme package insurance policy is a strong shield against both.
The Silent Threat: Water Damage
Water damage in a business often happens when no one is looking. A pipe in the ceiling bursts on a Friday night. By Sunday morning, your computers, files, and carpets are ruined. In high-rise buildings in areas like Marina or Downtown, a leak on the 20th floor can damage ten offices below it. Our sme business insurance covers “Bursting and Overflowing of Water Tanks.” It pays for the cleanup, the drying of the walls, and the replacement of your assets. We also guide you on “Tenant’s Liability.” If your leak damages the neighbor’s office, we handle their claim too.
The Total Threat: Fire Damage
Fire damage is devastating because it is often “total.” Even if the flames only touch one corner, the smoke can ruin everything else. Smoke smell is very hard to remove from furniture and clothes. A CoverB policy doesn’t just pay for what burned. It pays for “Debris Removal” (cleaning up the mess) and “Professional Fees” (architects or surveyors needed to rebuild). We also check that your “Sum Insured” is high enough. In Dubai, the cost of materials can go up fast. We make sure your policy reflects the current cost to rebuild your business from scratch.
Prevention and Protection
As your business insurance dubai partners, we also help with prevention. We give you tips on fire safety and pipe maintenance. A safer business gets lower rates. By working with CoverB, you get more than a policy—you get a team that watches your back. Secure your premises today at https://coverb.ae/property/sme-package/.
