Handyman Insurance

A handyman's cover has one trap the trade name creates: you do a bit of everything, and a claim on a job the insurer wasn't told you did can be knocked back. We place cover scoped to the range of work you actually take on, so the breadth that wins you jobs doesn't cost you a claim.

Cover

What handymen need covered

Public liability

For injury or property damage while you work — the everyday knock, spill or breakage in a client's home or business — at the limit your work and clients require.

Cover scoped to what you actually do

The handyman's real risk is a claim on work outside what the policy assumed. We make sure the range of jobs you take is disclosed, so a claim isn't declined for being 'off-scope'.

Tools of trade

Your tools and gear against theft and damage, in the van and on the job — the kit that does a dozen different jobs.

Cover, limits and examples shown are general in nature and subject to eligibility, underwriting and the terms of the issued policy.

What insurance does a handyman need?
Public liability is the essential, plus tools of trade for your gear. The important part for a handyman is scoping the cover to the actual range of work you do, so a claim on a less-common job isn't refused. We build it around your real jobs.
Why might a handyman's claim be knocked back?
Because handymen do a wide range of work, and a claim on a job the insurer wasn't told about can be declined as outside the policy. We make sure the breadth of your work is properly disclosed so that gap doesn't catch you.
Do I need cover for occasional or part-time work?
If you're paid to do the work and something goes wrong, you're exposed — part-time or occasional doesn't change that. Cover is inexpensive for the protection it gives, and clients increasingly ask to see it.
