Plastering Disasters

Like most trades, plasterers face their fair share of accidents on a day-to-day basis. Here are just some of the plastering mishaps and disasters your business might face, and how insurance could lessen the burden if the worst did happen:

A nasty tumble

Your employee is up on a ladder, helping you plaster a new build property. Unfortunately, as they’re stood on the ladder, it collapses and your employee is left badly injured. They choose to seek compensation from you for their injury. Your employer’s liability insurance is imperative here – it’ll cover the costs of the compensation for you, so you can continue doing what you do best.

Fire! Fire!

You’re on a construction site, applying plaster to a newly build home. Unfortunately, one of the electricians on site has made a mistake with the wiring and the property catches fire, burning away all your hard work. This is where contractor’s all risks insurance can come in handy. Through it, you’ll be able to claim the costs of re-doing or repairing the work, so you won’t end up out of pocket for someone else’s mistake.  Remember to add cover for contract works to your policy during the quote process to benefit from this optional cover.
