Frequently asked questions about bricklayer insurance
How much is bricklayers insurance?
Insurance for bricklayers and masonry contractors starts as low as $80 a month, depending on the size of the business, whether you work on commercial or residential projects, and whether you need coverage for a workshop or office and company vehicles.
Is insurance more expensive for bricklayers than other contractors?
The exact premium for your bricklaying company depends on the size of the business and a few other factors, but generally, bricklaying and masonry is seen as one of the lower-risk trades in terms of insurance. Average premiums for bricklaying businesses are lower than a number of higher-risk contractors like landscapers and roofers.
What are the most common claims for bricklayers?
On average, bricklaying and masonry companies make fewer and less costly claims than a number of other contracting businesses. The most common claims that we do see are usually related to a brick façade detaching from the rest of the structure.
Does my bricklaying business need cyber insurance?
If your bricklaying business stores customer information electronically, you need protection for data breaches and hacks that are not covered by general business liability policies. Ask your Mitch commercial insurance specialist about adding cyber coverage. The cost is less than you think, and it provides valuable protection for your company and its reputation, along with your customers.
