• Protects against claims: If a client or third party experiences property damage or injury due to your work, insurance covers legal fees and compensation costs.
• Meets legal requirements: In certain situations, it’s a legal requirement to have insurance as a self-employed builder. For instance, compliance via employers’ liability insurance is necessary when hiring workers.
• Safety measure for equipment: The loss of essential tools and machinery can be expensive, both in terms of their replacement/repair and potential downtime on projects. Insurance minimises the damage caused.
• Boost client trust: Insurance demonstrates professionalism and reliability. It assures clients you’re prepared to handle unexpected events in a responsible manner. The result: there are fewer barriers to securing contracts.
• Mitigates financial risks: Protects your cash flow by covering expenses from claims, accidents, or damages. For self-employed professionals without unlimited money, this can be key in keeping projects on track.
