Tilers Insurance

Tiling hides its worst claim behind the finish — a waterproofing or substrate problem that only shows up as water damage once the job is grouted and in use. That delayed, workmanship-tied exposure is what your cover has to answer, well after you've left the site.

Cover

What tilers need covered

Public liability

For injury or property damage while you work, at the limit builders and clients require — including the water damage that a tiling or waterproofing failure sends through the building.

Tools of trade

Cutters, mixers, levelling gear and your kit against theft and damage, on site and in transit. The tools every tiling job needs.

Waterproofing & water damage that surfaces later

A failure behind the tiles that appears as water damage after the job is the tiler's defining claim. We make sure completed-work and resulting water damage are covered, not quietly excluded.

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

What insurance do tilers and waterproofers need?
Public liability at the limit your contracts require is the core, plus tools of trade for your gear. Because a waterproofing or substrate failure shows up as water damage after the job, completed-work cover matters most. We build it around how you work.
Am I covered if waterproofing fails and causes water damage later?
That's the tiler's key exposure, and whether it's covered turns on how the policy handles completed work and resulting damage. We read that carefully and place the best available cover for a failure that surfaces once the job's in use.
Do I need public liability as a subcontractor?
Yes — the builder above you requires it before you're on site, and their policy protects them, not you. Cover in your own name is what lets you take the work.
