Public Liability Insurance is the cover most requested by tree surgeons. Although it’s not a legal requirement, it is an important policy to have in place. Public Liability Insurance covers:
- Damage done to a client or other person’s property as a direct result of work you are undertaking.
- Bodily injury or illness inflicted on a client or member of the public as a result of your work.
Premiums are normally based on turnover, the type of work you do, and the amount of cover you need. Cover for Public Liability for tree surgeons and foresters begins at £1million, however most councils and commercial clients will require you to be covered for up to £5million or sometimes £10million.
