Plumbers
Plumbing businesses are essential to residential, commercial, and industrial projects, dealing with high-risk tasks such as water systems, gas fitting, and drainage work. From burst pipes to property damage or compliance issues, plumbers face a wide range of operational and legal risks on every job.
At Angelic Insurance, we provide general advice to help plumbing professionals explore cover options such as public liability, tools and equipment insurance, professional indemnity, commercial motor insurance, and contract works cover. We compare policies from trusted Australian insurers to ensure your cover suits your trade licence requirements, work type, and business size.
Whether you’re a solo contractor, subcontractor on a large site, or running a plumbing business with multiple vehicles, we help protect your tools, time, and trade.

Industry Challenges
Without the right insurance, plumbers may face unexpected setbacks that impact their ability to work and earn. Common risks include:
Property Damage from Leaks or Installation Errors
Even a small plumbing error can cause extensive damage to floors, walls, or electricals. Liability cover helps protect against the fallout.
Theft of Tools from Work Vehicles
Plumbers often store expensive tools in their vans, making them a target for theft. Equipment insurance helps you recover quickly and stay on schedule.
Injury or Incidents on Site
Slips, sharp tools, or exposure to chemicals can lead to accidents. Public liability insurance helps protect you if others are harmed by your work.
Delays from Weather or Equipment Loss
Flooding, storms, or lost tools can delay critical plumbing work. Business interruption or contract works cover helps offset financial impacts.
Non-Compliance with Licensing or Builder Requirements
Plumbers are legally required to maintain certain insurance cover. Not having valid policies in place may result in penalties or lost contracts.
