Why Does a Electrical contractor Need Insurance?

Electrical work comes with real injury, fire, and property damage exposure, often on someone else’s site. One mistake, allegation, or jobsite accident can trigger lawsuits, medical bills, or contract penalties that hit cash flow fast.

What Does Electrical contractor Insurance Cover?

It can cover third-party injuries, property damage, completed-work claims, damage to your tools and materials, jobsite theft, auto accidents in work vehicles, and payroll-related costs if a crew member gets hurt.
