What Does Landscaping Services Insurance Cover?
A freshly mowed lawn and perfectly placed plants can make a property shine. But accidents happen and without the right landscaping insurance, you could be left footing the bill. We’re here to help you find coverage to help protect against some of the common risks you may face:
While edging a garden bed with a power trimmer, a rock kicks up and cracks a client’s sliding glass door. A general liability policy could help cover those types of third-party accidents.
You’ve landed a large landscaping project, but the customer requires proof that the work will be completed on time and to their specifications. That’s where a surety bond comes in. It’s a financial guarantee that protects your client if you can’t meet your contractual obligations. If the job isn’t finished or doesn’t meet agreed-upon standards, the bond can compensate the customer for their losses.
Even the most experienced landscapers can face claims of negligence. Let’s say you plant several expensive trees for a client, but they aren’t well-suited to the soil and fail to thrive. Adding a contractor’s errors and omissions endorsement to your general liability insurance could help cover the cost of repairs for completed work and help protect you against a negligence claim.
Your crew is tackling a big commercial job on a hot summer day when one of your landscapers shows signs of heat exhaustion and needs medical attention. Workers’ compensation insurance can help cover their medical bills and potentially provide wage replacement as they recover.
Workers’ comp is often legally required, depending on where your business is located. It can protect your business from costly claims, as well as taking care of your crew if they get sick or injured on the job. Even if you operate solo, we recommend considering workers’ comp, since many health insurance policies may not cover work-related injuries.
After finishing a long day on the job, you return to your trailer and find the lock broken — your chainsaw, leaf blower, and hedge trimmer are gone. Contractor’s equipment and small tools insurance, also known as an inland marine policy can help pay to replace or repair your stolen or damaged equipment — whether it’s on the move or at a job site.
