It doesn’t take much when you’re manoeuvring large items, such as panes of glass and uPVC frames, to cause damage to valuable property. Even worse, tools and equipment left in the wrong place can easily lead to a customer having an accident.
In either case, you could find yourself on the sharp end of a substantial claim for damages and could even end up liable for all the legal costs, the customer’s as well as yours. Without public liability insurance, that could spell financial disaster for you and your business.
