    Sounds like you are two sole traders so you need your own policies.

    Are you a bona fide partnership or are you in effect two separate self employed tradesmen who often work together.

    It's very very important for a Plumber to get this right as their claims tend to be very big due to the heat and / or water. The Insurers in this market are very thorough when checking you're correctly insured.
