Lawn mowers insurance

All tradespeople – plumbers, carpenters, lawn mowers, electricians – work in inherently risky environments. As a lawn mower, the machinery you use could cause serious injury or damage if it’s mishandled. And even the most careful lawn mowers make mistakes.

While you’re on the job, a hard object caught in your mower could cause harm somebody (or damage their property). Or, of course, it could seriously damage your equipment.

And what if it’s you who is injured or harmed? The right protection can help cover loss of income or medical bills if you’re unable to work.

Comprehensive coverage is a boon for any business – but it’s important to have cover that’s right for yours.

We recommend sole traders consider personal accident insurance in case they suffer a serious injury or death as the result of an accident.

Sole traders may be unable to take time off for injury, limiting their ability to maintain a stable income. Personal accident insurance covers loss of income and can provide financial cover for bills and other expenses.

Contractors with employees may need to arrange workers compensation insurance. This covers an employee's wages if they suffer a serious work-related injury or their compensation costs in the case of death.

We strongly recommend considering professional indemnity insurance if you provide advice or design services to your clients.

Professional indemnity insurance can cover your business for allegations of negligence involving a breach of professional duty. This is typically excluded under public liability insurance.

It depends.

If a subcontractor injures a third party or damages their property, they may be covered by their client’s public liability policy.

However, if a subcontractor is negligent and leaves their tools out, causing a third party to trip and injure themselves, then this claim may need to be made under the subcontractor’s policy.

As such, we strongly recommend subcontractors consider arranging their own public liability insurance to be appropriately covered.
