Farqhar & Black
I have been doing business for over 25 years with Farquhar & Black. They have insured my home and auto policies, business policies and investment properties. They have always handled my issues in a quick and professional manner. I am a believer in using a local agent. With Farquhar & Black I am able to pick up the phone and speak to someone I know and they know me.

Any questions or problems I have are answered very quickly. I have been a customer of Ned & Diana Breed for many years. I have both my personal and business insurance with Farquhar & Black. My previous agent of 35 years refused me house insurance because of the breed of dog we owned. Spoke to Ned and he said "No problem" and placed my insurance.

They are extremely helpful and friendly. Also, if you are confused about the process of insurance, or you are planning to add another driver, ect, they provide you with the answers that will have you satisfied. I wouldn’t change them for another insurance. I was even offered to pay less with liberty mutual insurance, but I declined because of how I’ve been treated.

Chris is always there to help. Most recently, a valuable customers began to use a service that required stringent insurance requirements. Being a small business, I thought that I may lose this account. But, Chris came to the rescue and fullfiled the insurance requirements in the most efficient and cost effective manner. Made it possible for me to keep a long time customer....
A great guy who goes sbove and beyond.

Farquhar & Black's team has gone above and beyond to ensure that i have the appropriate amount of coverage in my business. By taking the time to review our previous policy and working with us on our business needs, they were able to save us a substantial amount of money and aggravation. Thank you Ned, we look forward to having a long relationship with your establishment!
