Insurance Solutions for Roofers and Scaffolders

Insuring your scaffolding or roofing business is not as straightforward as other trades due to the added risk that working at height brings. Ensuring you are have appropriate specialist cover is vital.

As a scaffolder or roofer there are two key covers to consider; public liability & employers liability insurance.

Public liability insurance

Public liability insurance is a must have for any roofing contractor as this provides cover against the cost of any damage or injury to a third party .

Employers liability insurance

Employers liability insurance is required by law for any business or tradesman that has employees, hire contractors, casual workers or temporary staff. The policy will pay the costs incurred by an employee making a claim because he or she was injured or became seriously ill whilst working for your business.

Tools cover & contract works

DW Risk Services also offer cover for tools & contract works. This can be an important add on to your policies providing peace of mind in the event that your tools or building materials are lost, damaged or stolen.
