Insurance for painter and decorator
Anonymous user 23 February 2024 - 2.46 PM
Hi, I am just about to start out on my own as a painter and decorator. Do I need insurance, if so how much does it cost and where is the best place to get it? Kind Regards Gary

Go online to a price comparison site. The one I used had 6 companies they dealt with, strangely only one wanted to insure a painter and decorator despite no claims in the past! It would be silly not to have insurance as it seems to be between £90 and £150.

You don't know if you need insurance, depends on what sort of work you may be doing. If it's private work, there is no need just be careful,
but once you get on your feet I would buy some.

Im with constructaquote.com they were pretty reasonable for the year. Regardless of how careful you are, accidents do happen. Get insured for your own and clients peace of mind.

Yes you should have public indemnity insurance to cover damage you may do to your clients homes, accidentally of course.
Call Earl Franklin of Herald Insurance - they do the best deals I have ever come across.

Insurance isn't a requirement, however it does give the potential client another reason to choose you.
