A roof is essential protection. So is insurance.

A solid roof protects the people and the contents underneath it. It’s essential for safety and peace of mind (just like insurance for roofers). 

Whether it’s a repair from storm damage, an upgrade to an office building, or the finishing touch on a new home, each project is different, which is an exciting aspect of your job. But working on different sites with a different scope in each project can present unique risks in the roofing business. 

  • Operate a business with a physical location.

  • Have assets, like inventory or equipment, that can be stolen or damaged.

  • Risk customer injury or property damage due to your operations.

Accidents that could threaten your roofing business

Without insurance for roofers, claims can take a considerable toll on the financial stability of your business. Here are just a few examples of accidents that could threaten your company:

  • Customer property damage: if you are repairing storm damage to a roof and damage occurs on another structural part of their property, the customer could claim that you or your staff are responsible. If you don’t have general liability insurance for roofers, you would pay for the damage out of pocket.

  • Workplace injuries: an employee could experience a workplace injury while using a nail gun to install a new roof. Who’s responsible for medical treatment and leave? Without insurance, you are.

  • Commercial vehicle accident: when backing your truck into a client’s driveway, there’s a risk of accidentally damaging freshly installed landscaping—or worse, hitting their car. You guessed it – it's on you to cover the damage without the right insurance policy.

  • Save money. Your property and liability risks are bound in a single package with premiums that are typically less expensive than purchasing and renewing each coverage individually.

  • For example, just like when you order a meal at a fastfood restaurant, when you buy the meal deal, it's cheaper than if you buy your sandwich, drink, and fries individually.

  • Simplifies the insurance process and makes it easier for you to manage multiple coverages in one business owner’s policy.

  • It’s invaluable to have the peace of mind that you are properly protected through a range of coverages included in one business owner’s policy so you can focus on growing your business.

Types of insurance for roofers

What kind of insurance for roofers is right for your business?

Being a roofer means working in various locations, oftentimes at high elevations and risking property damage or employee injury. Workers’ compensation (WC) and general liability (GL) insurance for roofers are a great place to start to provide protection and peace of mind.

But roofers like you require coverage beyond standard GL and WC policies to protect your investments, your equipment, and your personnel, wherever the job site is. Coverage, in addition to general liability insurance for roofers, could include:

Tools and equipment insurance.
Other specific coverages to protect your roofing business.
