Tradesman Saver’s Public Liability Cover For Carpet Fitters


Our standard cover is:

  • £1 million cover for public and products liability (with an option to increase to £2 million or £5 million)
  • £10,000 cover for any financial loss (£50K cover optional)
  • Worldwide liability cover for temporary work abroad for up to 14 days (excluding the USA and Canada)

There are many insurance options which would benefit your carpet fitters business, and public liability is one of the most significant. This protects you if your work ends up damaging a client’s property or injuring a client or member of the public. For example, you may need to pay compensation if a client trips over your tools and is injured or you accidentally damage a customer’s carpet with your muddy work boots.

Claims such as this can cost a small fortune but having public liability cover means you won’t be responsible for paying any of the resulting expenses. You can purchase this as part of our automatic package, which also covers you for financial loss, legal expenses, and more.

Other relevant insurance policies for a carpet fitters business include employer’s liability, which is a legal requirement for anybody who employs staff, and professional indemnity insurance. Here at Tradesman Saver we have all the coverage you may need as a carpet fitter and you can get your quote online in minutes.

Don’t Allow An Accident To Ruin Your Business

Unfortunately, no matter how careful you are, accidents have a way of finding you. Although you can hope that you’ll never be put in a situation where you’ll be faced with a compensation claim, it can happen to anyone. Here are just a few examples of the kinds of claims you might be faced with in your profession, and how insurance could help you out of a jam:

 

Shattered & in pieces

You’re on a job, fitting a carpet in a client’s property. As you’re moving the carpet to the room upstairs where your client wants it fitted, you accidentally knock over an expensive family photo frame. Your client then decides to seek compensation from you for the damages. Your public liability insurance will look after you here – it will cover the costs of the damage for you, ensuring your business doesn’t have to take a financial hit because of an accident.

Thieves!

You’re loading your van with your tools after finishing a job. You leave the van for a short period of time to go and pick up your payment from the client, but when you return, you find your van has been broken into and your tools have been stolen. This is where your tools & equipment insurance can come in handy – your insurer will cover the costs of replacing the tools that have been stolen, meaning your business doesn’t have to suffer because of someone else’s greed.

*This indicative price is for £1m public and products liability, £250,000 legal expenses, £10,000 financial loss and £10,000 accidental death insurance cover for a sole trader. The price includes insurance premium tax but excludes our admin charge. 17% of new customers paid less than £59 between 1st January 2023 and 31st January 2023. The actual price you pay will depend upon your specific business requirements and will be affected by your trade, your claims history and the optional covers you select which are all priced separately during the quote process.
