General Liability

Protection for the injuries, accidents and damage you cause

General liability insurance covers a wide range of accidents and basic risks. With plumber liability insurance, you’ll have financial protection if someone other than an employee gets hurt or you are held responsible for damaging property that doesn’t belong to you. General liability might be required for a plumbing license in your state, and it’s common for clients to ask for proof of coverage. General liability includes contractors’ E&O, or professional liability coverage, which can help cover costs in a business disagreement.

general liability can help you pay for:

Medical payments

Property damage

Legal fees and judgments

Contractors’ E&O

Coverage against business mistakes and claims of negligence

Errors and omissions insurance (also known as professional liability) helps you defend yourself if you’re accused of making a mistake that causes someone to lose money. For example, if you are accused of installing the wrong sink at a client’s property, your policy could help cover expenses to fix the problem.

professional liability can help you pay for:

Professional negligence (actual or alleged)

Legal defense costs

Legal judgments

Commercial Auto

For business owners who own or drive vehicles

Most states require commercial auto insurance for business-owned vehicles to help pay for medical expenses and property damage. Personal auto insurance usually won’t provide coverage for plumbing business activities, such as taking pipes and fixtures to a job site.

commercial auto can help you pay for:

Medical expenses

Collision repairs

Rental reimbursement

Workers' Compensation

For business owners who hire employees

Workers’ compensation insurance can help you and your employees after a workplace accident. Most states require it as soon as you hire your first employee, and you might need coverage before you can get your plumber license. It can help pay for medical bills and lost wages after an accident.

workers compensation can help you pay for:

Medical expenses

Lost wages

Employer liability

Tools & Equipment

Protection for your gear and equipment

Tools and equipment coverage makes sure your gear is protected wherever you keep it — in your vehicle, in a trailer or at a job site. If you don’t own or lease property and regularly take expensive plumbing gear to a job site, tools & equipment insurance offers protection against damage or theft. This coverage is available as an add-on to our general liability insurance.

inland marine can help you pay for:

Equipment owned by you

Employee tools and clothing

Borrowed equipment

Commercial Property

For business owners who own or rent physical spaces

Commercial property insurance can help protect your plumbing equipment, inventory and your building if you own it. If you own real estate where you store equipment, commercial property insurance provides coverage for your equipment while it’s on the premises, as well as for the building itself.

commercial property can help you pay for:

Damaged equipment and inventory

Lost income

Operating expenses

How much does plumber insurance cost?

Plumber insurance costs vary based on the risks that your business faces, such as:

The types of projects you work on
Where your projects are located
The types of vehicles you use at work

Plumber insurance requirements

Plumbers are often required to have insurance due to the risk of injury and property damage while working on residential and commercial projects. You might need insurance to:

Get a plumber license in your state.
Start work on a project. Clients might ask you to have active insurance — usually general liability or workers’ compensation — before you can work at their property.
Drive for business purposes. Business-owned vehicles typically need commercial auto insurance and personal auto policies might not cover business driving.
Hire employees or subcontractors. Most states require workers’ compensation.
Repair or replace property you own or rent. Protect your inventory, equipment and even the building that you lease or own.
