What is scaffolders insurance?
Scaffolders insurance is for a trade the general market treats as high hazard: working at height, on other people's buildings, with heavy materials and the public underneath. Many insurers will not quote it, and those that do vary widely in what they exclude. We know which insurers write scaffolding properly, what they need to see and how to present the business, so the cover is arranged by someone who understands the trade rather than declined by someone who does not.
What a policy can include
The work at height, the people doing it and the plant and materials that make it possible.
Your work
Your teamEmployers' liability
Injury to your own team, including labour-only subcontractors, who insurers usually treat as employees. We check that everyone on site is counted.
Your equipmentPlant and materials
Tubes, boards, fittings and the vehicles that move them, on site, in the yard and in transit. We check where the cover starts and stops.

We start with the work: the heights, the types of contract, the subcontractors and the sites. The cover is presented to insurers around that detail, which is what gets a scaffolder quoted rather than declined.
