Tradesman Insurance FAQs

What insurance does a Steel Erector need?

Most Steel Erectors start with public liability insurance. If you employ staff, you're legally required to hold employers’ liability insurance. Depending on your work, you may also need cover for tools, personal injury, professional indemnity or contract works.

Do I need professional indemnity insurance?

If your work includes advice, designs, or technical specifications, professional indemnity insurance protects you if a client claims financial loss due to a mistake in your work. It’s particularly useful for trades offering expert guidance.

How much public liability cover do I need?

Cover levels typically range from £1 million to £10 million. The right level depends on the type of work you do and any contractual obligations. We’ll help guide you to the right option during your quote.

Can I get cover if I’m self-employed?

Yes. Whether you're working solo or running a small team, we offer tailored cover for self-employed Steel Erectors. You can include tools, personal accident, and other extras as needed.

How much does Steel Erectors insurance cost?

Steel Erectors public liability insurance starts from £295.95 per year or £24.66 per month via Direct Debit (if your premium is over £200). Final costs depend on the work you do and the cover levels you choose.

How do I get a quote?

Just complete our quick online form or call us on 02071 185247. You can also request a callback. We usually return quotes within 1 hour during business hours.

What does a policy typically include?

Policies are flexible and can be tailored to your needs. You can choose from:

Do I legally need public liability insurance?

It’s not required by law, but it’s strongly recommended. Many clients or contractors require it before allowing you on-site, and it protects against claims made by the public or customers.

Do I need employers’ liability insurance?

Yes, if you employ anyone who’s not a direct family member. It’s a legal requirement with minimum cover of £5 million.

What is the difference between public and employers' liability insurance?

Public liability protects against injury or damage claims from third parties. Employers’ liability covers injuries or illness suffered by your staff as a result of their work.

Can I include personal injury insurance?

Yes, personal accident cover is available as an optional extra. You could receive compensation of up to £10,000 for injuries or £20,000 in the event of death, depending on the circumstances.

Can I combine multiple covers in one policy?

Absolutely. Just select the types of cover you need when completing your quote. We’ll bundle everything into one convenient policy.

Can I pay monthly?

Yes—we offer Direct Debit plans to help spread the cost across monthly instalments, available on policies over £200.

When it comes to steel erector public liability insurance, it's essential to get the right coverage to protect your business. Before choosing a policy, make sure to read all documentation carefully to ensure you understand the coverage offered. Be sure to choose the appropriate limit of indemnity to avoid leaving your business at risk.

Having an accurate replacement value of your tools and property is also important, as it enables you to replace your equipment in case of damage or theft. If you employ people in your business, including those working from your home, you are legally required to have employer's liability insurance. Failing to do so could result in heavy fines.
