As a plumber working in the property of your clients, you have a higher chance of risk. Every property is different and one mistake, not being aware of your surroundings can lead to damage. This is why it is essential to have plumber’s public liability insurance.
Why do plumbers need plumber’s public liability insurance?
All tradespeople need public liability insurance to protect themselves. Public liability can help to cover compensation should you cause property damage or injury to an individual. For plumbers, the risk is often greater. Furthermore, plumbers have the chance to cause even greater (more expensive) property damage as a result of a mistake.
It is important to remember that compensation can be exorbitant. However, defending a claim in court can lead to costly legal costs too. Not having this money could significantly damage your business. With insurance, you have peace of mind that you can cover the cost of a claim.
What is plumber’s public liability insurance?
Plumber’s public liability insurance is a specific form of public liability insurance. The cover options can have levels of indemnity of £1 million. This is usually the minimum amount.
