Public Liability Insurance for your solar panel business

Solar panel installers are required to do complex work on homes and business and unfortunately the installation process can sometimes lead to accidental damage, which is why Public Liability Insurance is a must. It means you’re covered for damage caused to property or another person as a result of your work.

Solar panel installers often don’t think about how expensive their specialised tools and equipment are until you’re suddenly without them and need to replace them quickly. General Property Cover makes sure you’re covered if your equipment is lost or stolen so you can get back to working.
