There are different types of construction work insurance
offered, which are
Contract Works Insurance
Contract Works Insurance provides cover for the property
being worked on, i.e. the ‘works’. Contract Works cover are mainly that any
damage that occurs to the ‘works’ being carried out can mean having to do the
work twice for only one payment – for example if the extension catches fire or
the roof blows off half way through the job.
Own Plant Insurance
An Own Plant insurance policy will include cover for any of
your own plant, scaffolding, site huts or temporary buildings that are owned or
hired by you.
Hired In Plant Insurance
If you hire in plant and equipment, it is likely that the
owner of the equipment will hand over responsibility for any damage or theft to
the machinery. By taking out Hired-in Plant Insurance, you will cover both the
equipment and any liability you may have to the owner.
Tools Insurance
Tools are crucial to some businesses, particularly to those
in the construction industry and to independent tradesmen. Protecting your
tools with insurance means that you’ll have the peace of mind that they can be
replaced with a minimum of disruption to your business activities. The level of
tools insurance varies. It covers hand-tools, power-tools and equipment for
loss, damage or theft.
