If you run a tiling business, you'll be fully aware of the risks involved. You could be putting out fires from an employee inhaling dust and becoming ill, a customer cutting themselves on a loose tile or rescheduling work due to a tool robbery.
It is vital to understand these risks and why it's essential to hold the right level and type of tiler insurance. That's where Rhino Trade Insurance comes to help you out. We are here to ensure you are covered and that your tiling business runs smoothly, no matter the impact.
You may wonder why you even need tiler insurance. Well, having insurance is a necessary evil. In a world of hazards, one wrong step and it could be the end of your business. Injuries, legal issues, van problems, damages and much more can all be used as ways to gain compensation from your business bank account.
There is a full range of policies that can protect your business. We aren't here to confuse you. We want to share why having the right level of cover is important and what else you could get protection for.
There are a whole host of policies that can come under tiler insurance. All of which protect your business in their own individual way. You could decide to take our Public Liability Insurance, Employer's Liability Insurance or Contractors All Risks Insurance.
Other popular types of trade insurance that we offer include:
For anyone who runs a tiling business, whether a self-employed or a limited company, Public Liability Insurance offers protection for your business in case a public member, customer or supplier makes a claim against you because of injury or damage to their property.
You could, for example, be tiling a kitchen and injure a customer by spilling some water, causing them to slip over. Alternatively, you may cause damage by tiling over an electrical outlet and trip the power. In both of these examples, a tiler may face claims against damages and injury. Instead of footing the bill yourself , your Public Liability Insurance can cover your back and pay any compensation owed.
Although you aren't legally required to hold Public Liability Insurance, you'd be mad not to take out a policy. Insuring your business with Rhino is far cheaper than any potential damages bill you would face. Quite frankly, it gives you peace of mind as a business owner and gives you one less thing to worry about.
Here at Rhino Trade Insurance, we offer some of the best rates on the market. You can get fantastic protection from just £6.07 a month - an absolute steal! We offer protection for whatever level you need ranging from £1 million up to £5 million on request.
Having Employers' Liability Insurance protects you if you have any staff members working for your business.
As a tiler, if you employ a team to go out and tile people's homes, then you will need this type of cover. Without it, you are breaking the law and could be fined up to £2,500 a day!
At Rhino Trade Insurance, tradespeople across the UK regularly add this to their current policy. It's simple to do and protects any employer from a claim that results from an employee causing injury or damage whilst working for you.
