Arranged by Primo plc

High-Risk Trades Insurance

Roofing contractors insurance is currently available with affordable competitive premiums without any compromise on the level of cover required. We can arrange cover for roofing contractors working with or without heat, unlimited height and with asbestos risks.

Roofing is considered a high risk occupation. Working at height, sometimes in inclement weather and often with heat, it's crucial that you’re advised on the correct cover and purchase the right insurance package. Our brokers understand this and will tailor roofers insurance liability policies to suit each individual contractor no matter how big or small your roofing business is.

  • Roofing insurance backed guarantees

    Primo plc brokers are able to arrange latent defects insurance which can cover damages and defects after any roofing work has been completed on either residential or commercial properties. Latent defect insurance can cover the cost of repairing any damages that have come about due to defects in materials, workmanship, construction or during the installation of a roof.

  • How we provide competitive cover and cost

    Thanks to specialist UK Underwriters with years of knowledge in construction and roofing trades, we are able to arrange and obtain highly competitive insurance premiums for all roofers and roofing contractors. Make sure when your applying for a roofers liability insurance quote that you make it clear whether you work with heat or not, this is very important to ensure you're provided with the correct roofers insurance cover.
