Coverage Options for Businesses

Material Damage

Covers loss or damage to physical assets such as buildings, contents and equipment due to events like fire, theft or natural disasters.

Public Liability

Covers third-party property damage or personal injury caused during business operations. This is especially relevant for anybody who runs a business where there is a risk of third party property damage.

Contract Works

Covers accidental physical loss or damage to construction works, materials and equipment during the build period, including fire, theft, storm and vandalism.

Contractual and Legal Requirements

In many industries, having insurance is not just advisable—it’s mandatory. Contractors may be required to show proof of insurance to secure work, especially on larger projects.

Safeguarding Tools and Equipment

Tools are the backbone of any contractor's business. Theft, loss, or damage to tools can halt operations and lead to financial strain. Mobile Business Assets Insurance helps cover the cost of replacing tools and equipment.

Vehicle Coverage

Business vehicles—utes, vans, trucks—often serve as mobile offices and tool storage. Business Vehicle Insurance covers accidental damage, theft, and liability, ensuring contractors can stay mobile and operational.

Frequently Asked Questions About Business Insurance

Small business insurance options include:
  • Commercial Property/assets
  • Business interruption
  • Commercial Vehicle
  • Public Liability
  • Professional Indemnity
  • Cyber Insurance.
These cover a range of risks, from legal liabilities to property damage and data breaches.

Public liability insurance protects your business against claims for injury or damage caused to third parties due to your business activities. This coverage is essential to cover your legal liability for third party property damages and also your legal defence costs.

Working with our insurance brokers, we’ll help you assess your business’s risks, assets, and potential liabilities. We’ll help tailor coverage to meet your specific needs and ensure your business remains adequately protected.

Several factors will affect the overall cost of your business insurance policies, including:
  • Type and Amount of Coverage: Different types of insurance (e.g., general liability, property, professional liability) and the coverage limits affect costs.
  • Size and Nature of Your Business: Larger businesses and those in high-risk industries (like construction) typically face higher premiums.
  • Location: Costs vary based on geographic location and the area's risk of natural disasters and crime.
  • Policy Excesses and Limits: Higher Excesses can reduce premiums.
Our brokers can work with your business to tailor a policy that balances coverage needs and costs.
