Business insurance

Insurance for Flooring Stores

A flooring store carries the usual retail risks plus the value of the stock on your floor. Public liability protects you if a customer is hurt in the showroom or during an install, while contents and stock cover guard against fire, water or theft damaging valuable timber and carpet. If you arrange installation, you will also want cover for damage caused on a customer's property, and workers' compensation if you employ staff.

Because so much capital sits in stock, getting the sum insured right matters — under-insure and a fire or flood could wipe out a season's product. Premiums for a store this size often sit around the ~$900 mark, and with many policies renewing around 30 June, review your stock value and install cover before the new financial year.

Common questions

Flooring Stores — insurance questions

Does my cover include the stock on my showroom floor?

It should, through a contents and stock policy that protects timber, carpet and displays against fire, water and theft. Because so much of your capital sits in stock, getting the sum insured right is critical so a single event does not wipe out a season of product.

Am I covered when my crews install on a customer's site?

Public liability typically covers damage or injury during installation, but check the policy clearly extends to work on customer premises if you arrange the laying. Reviewing this before your 30 June renewal avoids a gap if an install goes wrong.
