Important: The information provided on this page is general in nature and does not take into account your individual circumstances. Insurance cover, terms, conditions and exclusions vary between insurers and policies. Your insurance requirements will depend on your business activities, contracts, assets and individual circumstances. Please refer to the relevant policy wording and documentation for full details of cover. The risks listed above are general examples only, for illustrative purposes, and do not confirm that your individual policy will respond to any particular claim.
Cover can generally be structured around the full mix of work you do, from external rendering to interior fix and set. Let us know the range of services you offer and we can help you look at options that fit.
Tools, equipment and plant cover can include theft and accidental damage, often including tools kept in a locked vehicle. Conditions such as security requirements may apply, so it’s worth checking policy wording.
Subcontracted work can generally be considered when structuring your cover. Let us know the head contractor’s or site operator’s insurance requirements and we can help you explore options that meet them.
Public and products liability can respond to claims for property damage arising from your work, including damage that becomes apparent after the job is complete, subject to policy terms and conditions.
Some liability policies may respond to claims involving exposure to dust or other substances, subject to policy wording and exclusions. We can help you understand what’s typically included and what isn’t.
It may be relevant where you’re responsible for work in progress, such as a render or ceiling job partway through. Contract works can help protect eligible plastering work against insured events such as theft, fire and storm, subject to policy terms.
