What our clients say
Steyning, West SussexI reconfirm my grateful thanks for sorting out my claim so efficiently. As you know I was Insurance Broker here in the local community with my Father Arthur H. Browne for some 28 years before we integrated with Brown Shipley. I cannot stress the importance of dealing with an Insurance Broker rather than Direct with an Insurance Company. The mere fact that you can speak to the same person throughout makes life so much simpler and far more enjoyable. All my dealings with Dennis Watkins & Co, the Family, Andrew and Gill have always been a pleasure.David Browne

LondonDennis Watkins & Co Ltd, whether the partners, or more recently the directors, or their frontline staff, have been dealing with all my family's various insurance requirements (home, household, car, foreign travel, foreign holiday home etc.) for as long as I can recall. They always do so most efficiently, with considerable expertise and very importantly with great friendliness and I have never had the need to look anywhere else for advice on insurance matters. Long may they thrive.D Tisdall

HenfieldI was recommended to Dennis Watkins back in 2008 and they have looked after our houses and cars since then. My wife and I own a small number of properties that we rent out plus our home and our two cars. Dennis Watkins always remind me when a policy is coming up for renewal and have got me some very competitive deals. I would strongly recommend them to my friends and anyone looking for help in finding a company to insure them.Andy Manual

KentI've been a customer of Dennis Watkins for many years now. They look after all my buildings, contents and travel insurance and I never have to worry about remembering renewal dates or searching for the best deal. They know in detail what my requirements are and they make sure I don't just get the cheapest but also the policies that fit my personal circumstances. I just had to claim off my travel insurance for the first time and the company they used paid up within days of receiving the claim. The only other claim I've had to make was on my building insurance for a water-damaged floor. Dennis Watkins ensured that this claim was handled in an extremely efficient manner and I was more than satisfied with the outcome.Melanie Goldsmith

BathThere are three reasons I use Robert Watkins and his company: I am confident that there is nobody more competent than him; I have never experienced customer service to rival them, ever; and I feel like Robert really cares about me. That is priceless. I can only suggest that if you need insurance and you're not using Dennis Watkins and Co, then you are not dealing with the right company.Daniel Rutland

Haywards HeathJust a quick note to thank you for your help today. It certainly beats D.I.Y insurance for both cars and household. My two years of leaving you and doing it ourselves was a nightmare - days spent 'phoning and e-mailing assorted on-line and TV insurers we have no wish to visit again. It is much easier to pick up the 'phone and leave it all to yourselves who understand the complexities of Insurance.John Dalton

ICSA Software International LtdI am being totally honest when I say that the service you and your firm consistently provides is second to none. And I deal with a lot of people.Stephen Page
What our clients say
I appreciate the personal service that I receive from the team at Dennis Watkins. For example, a few weeks ago I received a reminder to pay my car insurance, which I completely forgot. Today, I received a telephone call reminding me that I had not paid and asking if I needed any help or advice. I paid, knowing that I would get a competitive deal. Without that call I would soon be illegally driving without cover. Thanks for the call, Gillian!N Hoey
