Business insurance for carpenters?  

A carpenter’s primary must-have policy is public liability, covering third party personal injury or damage to property during the course of their work.  They should also consider insuring their tools of trade anywhere in Australia.  A good tools policy will include theft from the open air and theft from unattended motor vehicles, which is a common occurrence in the construction industry. 

Workers Compensation insurance must also be taken out for any carpenters with employees.  Carpenters should also include any sole trader subcontractors who work for them under their Workers Compensation policy, as sole traders are not able to obtain Workers Compensation for themselves.

If you're a carpenter, or a tradie of any kind, Westralian Insurance can help with your insurance needs, and answer any questions you may have.  Call the friendly professionals today on (08) 9302 1388, or visit www.westralianinsurance.com.au

What insurance do tradies need?

Tradies need Public Liability insurance, in order to cover claims for third party property damage and personal injury.  Some Public Liability policies can also be extended to provide Australia-wide cover for Tools of Trade.  Workers Compensation is a legal requirement for any tradies with employees or subcontractors.  

Some tradies may also need Builders Warranty if they work on residential construction projects valued at $20,000 or more.  Work vehicles, utes, plant and equipment can also be included on certain policies for tradies, or insured separately.

If you're a tradie and have insurance questions which need answering, we can help!  We'll take the time to review your business requirements, explain the different types of insurance available, and ensure you're fully covered, so you can get on with running your business.
