Your working life as a carpenter will involve attention to detail, dedication to providing a high quality finished product and care and attention when using potentially dangerous tools and equipment. You'll need a carpenters insurance policy that reflects the demands of life as a carpenter and that's exactly what you'll find through our site. All your carpenters insurance requirements can be catered for through Compare Contractors Insurance and the cost will be less than you might think.
Your work as a carpenter will often involve working on the private property of your clients. Whether you're a contractor working on a large-scale project or working individually, accidents that result in damage to a third party's property are always a possibility. For this reason you'll want to make sure that your carpenters insurance policy comprises liability insurance. Public liability insurance will cover you in situations when legal action is taken against you following a third party sustaining an injury in connection with your business. Through our site it's available to the value of £1m, £2m or £5m – so you'll have the flexibility to fix this kind of liability cover in to your carpenters insurance at the amount that's appropriate to your work as a carpenter.
We're also concerned to offer carpenters insurance for small businesses as well as individuals working on a freelance basis. Employers liability insurance is legally compulsory if you own a carpenters business with employees and can be put in place up to the value of £10m through our site. This will cover you comprehensively if an employee of yours suffers an injury at work and decides to make a claim against you. As a professional carpenter and business person, safety when at work and the well being of your employees will be one of your top priorities. But given the risks attached to your profession it's better to be safe than sorry: and an excellent way to be safe is to purchase liability insurance as part of your carpenters insurance
