Robust protection for your plumbing business

For plumbers and heating engineers, with clients and projects changing from one day to the next, there is a risk of accidents happening or things going wrong occasionally. From servicing a home boiler, replacing old or damaged pipework through to a commercial bathroom fit-out, there's much more to plumbing than many people may realise. Your tools and equipment could get lost or stolen. Worse still, a pipe could burst and flood the home or construction site you work in.

Whether you're running a business with a team of plumbers and fleet of vans, or are a sole trader working in the local community, Gallagher offers a range of plumber insurance solutions to meet your needs.

Why do I need Plumber insurance?

The work that you do as a plumber is often essential to businesses and in the home, even if it's something as simple as fixing a leaky tap. But the nature of your work means that things could go seriously wrong should you ever have an accident or make a mistake. That's why you should consider plumber insurance — helping to ensure that you and those who could be affected can be protected.

The thought of being injured can often be a key concern when considering the need for plumber insurance. Whilst this can be the case, we also believe the financial cost to you and your business if something goes wrong is equally important. If a client or employee has any reason to make a claim against you, it could leave you seriously out of pocket.

Our specialist team can also help you think about the potential pitfalls you may face as a plumber, to help ensure your plumber insurance offers the appropriate level of protection and gives you the confidence to run your business.
