Business insurance

Insurance for Roof Painters

Roof painting carries serious height and property risk. Public liability is essential — overspray onto a neighbour's car, a dropped tool or water damage from pressure-cleaning can all lead to a real claim. Working-at-height exposure means safety is central, and tool and contents cover protects your pressure cleaners, spray rigs and access gear against theft from the ute or site. Add workers' compensation once you have crew on harnesses. With many policies renewing around 30 June, review your cover before the new financial year.

Common questions

Roof Painters — insurance questions

Why is public liability so important for roof painters?

Because the risks are real — overspray, dropped tools and water ingress from cleaning can damage a property or a neighbour's car. Public liability responds to those claims, and most clients expect you to hold it before you start.

Is my spray and cleaning gear covered if stolen?

Tool and contents cover handles theft and damage to pressure cleaners, spray rigs and access equipment — a common loss in this trade. Make sure your sum insured reflects the real replacement cost of your kit.
