THE PROBLEM
Your Fire Business Has Risks That Generic Insurance Doesn't Cover
Most insurance brokers treat fire protection companies the same as any other trade, but your business isn't like other trades.
Liability Gaps
Standard public liability policies often exclude or undercover fire system installation risks. One faulty sprinkler head, one failed alarm panel, and you're exposed to claims that your generic policy won't touch.
Professional Risks
A standard public liability policy only goes so far. It doesn’t cover your exposure when providing professional advice, system design, testing, or tagging. Without professional indemnity, you carry that financial risk alone.
Complex Contracts
Working for major builders or strata managers often means signing complex contracts with strict insurance requirements. A standard policy rarely meets these demands, leaving you in breach of contract before you even start the job.
Fire protection contractors, installers, and safety specialists deserve insurance that understands what you actually do.
