Construction Insurance
If you own or manage a construction site, consider that there are several potential risks that can disrupt your business’ operations.
We understands these risks and can give you options to protect you and your business. The policies we offer can be available as a one-off for a specific project, or you can take an annual policy covering multiple projects and sites Australia-wide.
We can tailor an insurance solution with a range of cover options to protect your contracted works against significant contingencies before, during and after completion, as well as anyone visiting or working on the site.
