Public liability insurance for painters

Public liability cover exists to protect your livelihood and reputation should you or your employees cause an accident. When a third-party (customer, client or member of the public) launches a claim, the costs can quickly add up:

  • Medical costs
  • Legal fees
  • Settlement
  • Investigation costs
  • Repairing or replacing damaged property

As well as covering the expenses, public liability insurance can be a way to resolve issues before they end up in court.

It’s important to remember that public liability insurance only covers third party costs. It’s not the same as worker’s compensation or tools insurance.

CONTRACT WORKS INSURANCE POLICY FOR PAINTERS

Tradies365 expert associates build custom insurance policies for our tradies and subbies. Our contract works insurance protects from theft, storm damage, fire, and floods.

We have two kinds of contract works policies.

  • The annual contract works policy covers you on all of your job sites for a year.
  • The single job policy gives cover just one job site for up to 12-months.

Worker’s compensation insurance

Worker’s compensation cover is a legal requirement for any business owner who employs staff. As soon as you take on your first apprentice, you need worker’s compensation cover.

But many Perth painters and decorators are in the dark regarding worker’s compensation insurance. For example, you might need cover for contractors – and you can’t wait until it’s too late to find out.

The Tradies365 team are experienced trades insurance specialists. We can talk you through your requirements and simplify worker’s compensation insurance for painters and decorators, so your entire team is always protected.

Contract works insurance

The construction and renovation industry is complex. Accidents – and therefore claims – can happen any time, even when you are not on the job site.

Contract works insurance protects you and your business from claims arising at any stage of the job, from tender to post-completion. 

Some insurers will only provide cover for the construction phase. These policies expose your business to risk in the post-completion phase when the contractor still has responsibility for the property.

Income protection insurance

If you are unable to work due to illness or injury, the financial burden on your family can accumulate fast. 

Opting to carry income protection insurance means you and your family are protected in case the unthinkable happens.

Tradies365 income protection insurance for painters covers you anywhere around Australia, on or off the job, for any unexpected illness or accident that leaves you unable to earn an income.
