“Outstanding”
Absolutely brilliant, would highly recommend, able to chat with someone on the phone which is a novelty. Very helpful as my requirements were quite complicated, but nothing was too much trouble. Then later found out that I needed to alter some things, called back and once again everything was taken care of. Also filled in some complicated contractors forms. Outstanding.

“for all my public liability insurance needs”
I have just returned to my old trade after a 6 month trial of employed work. It wasn’t for me. I called up Trade Direct Insurance for all my public liability insurance needs & I’m happy to report it was as easy to set up as putting on my favourite pair of slippers after a hard days work. Many thanks TDI.

FAQs - Public Liability Insurance for drylining contractors
Even if it's not legally required, it's highly recommended for drylining contractors due to the inherent risks involved in the work. Without it, a single claim could financially cripple your business.
While most businesses benefit from public liability insurance, those operating in low-risk, office-based environments may not need it. However, if you visit client premises or work on-site, it's essential to have this coverage.
Public liability insurance typically doesn't cover employee injuries (that's where employers' liability insurance comes in), damage to your own property, or intentional acts of harm.
Public liability covers claims for physical injury or property damage, while professional indemnity insurance covers claims for financial loss due to professional negligence or mistakes in your work.
The level of cover you need depends on the size and nature of your business. We can help you assess your risks and recommend the right level of coverage.
Contact us immediately after an incident, and we'll guide you through the claims process.
