Business insurance

Insurance for Gardeners

A gardening business carries everyday risk because you are running powered equipment around other people's homes and dealing with flying debris, fences and windows. Public liability sits at the centre, covering damage to a property or injury caused by your work, alongside tool and equipment cover for mowers and trimmers, and vehicle cover for the work ute and trailer. If you take on staff, workers' compensation is required.

Premiums for a gardener often sit around the ~$1,000 mark. With many policies renewing around 30 June, it's worth reviewing your tool list and cover before the new financial year, especially after a year of equipment upgrades.

Common questions

Gardeners — insurance questions

Why does a gardener need public liability?

Because a flicked stone through a window, damage to a client's garden bed or an injury on site can lead to a costly claim. Public liability covers exactly that, and many clients and strata managers won't hire a gardener without it.

Should I insure my mowers and tools separately?

It's wise. Tool and equipment cover protects your mowers, blowers and trimmers against theft or damage, which matters when a stolen ride-on can stop you working. List your gear accurately so a claim reflects what it costs to replace.
