What Plumbers Face

The risks that come with the trade.

  • Water damage that spreads

    A slow leak or a failed connection can soak floors, drywall, and everything below before anyone sees it.

  • Call-backs and freeze season

    Burst lines and emergency calls stack up in winter, and every fix is a chance for a new claim.

  • Trenching and excavation

    Digging for a service line adds struck-utility and cave-in risk to the job.

  • Torch and soldering

    Sweating copper near framing is a quiet fire risk on plenty of plumbing jobs.

Coverage That Fits

Real scenarios, real coverage.

  • General Liability

    For exampleA fitting you installed lets go overnight and floods a finished basement. General liability covers the water damage claim.

  • Workers' Compensation

    For exampleA helper strains his back setting a cast-iron stack in a trench. Workers' comp covers the medical care and the lost time.

  • Business Owner's Policy (BOP)

    For exampleA torch on a repipe chars a joist and the homeowner files a claim. A BOP covers the third-party damage and your own tools together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Plumbers ask us this.

Is water damage I cause covered?
Accidental water damage to a client's property is a classic third-party claim general liability is designed to handle. Damage to your own installed work follows different rules, which we can walk you through.
Do I need a certificate for the general contractor?
Almost always. After you buy online you can download your certificate immediately and add the GC or property owner as needed. Reach out if the contract asks for specific language.
Does the policy cover trenching or excavation?
Underground and excavation work can carry specific terms, so if you dig for service lines it's worth a quick call to confirm your policy matches the work and no exclusion catches you off guard.
