What is Contractors Combined Insurance?
Contractors’ combined insurance (sometimes called trade insurance) is a flexible business insurance policy designed specifically for contractors, subcontractors, and tradespeople. Instead of juggling multiple policies, combined insurance brings together a wide range of essential covers in one easy-to-manage package.
Typical cover can include:
-
Public Liability Insurance – Protects you against claims if a client, customer, or member of the public is injured or their property is damaged.
-
Employer’s Liability Insurance – A legal requirement if you employ staff, covering workplace accidents and illnesses.
-
Tools and Equipment Cover – Essential for tradespeople whose livelihood depends on their tools.
-
Contract Works Insurance – Covers ongoing projects and materials in case of fire, theft, or damage.
-
Business Interruption Cover – Protects your income if your work is disrupted by an insured event.
This all-in-one solution ensures your business, employees, tools, and customers are protected, giving you peace of mind to focus on the job.
