When you’re working on a construction site, plenty of things can go wrong. Damage or loss to a building could cost you time, money and even your reputation. Meanwhile, an onsite injury can result in considerable pain, stress and financial loss.
Contract works insurance is recommended for small, medium and large commercial, industrial and domestic builders, sub-contractors and owner-builders. Most owner builders take out contract works insurance for a specific contract, while professional builders generally choose an annual policy that covers multiple contracts.
The construction industry had the fourth highest rate of serious claims
in 2012-13.

According to the NSW Police, theft from housing construction sites accounts for 1% of the cost of a new home.

WA building industry’s anti-crime group, Busted, states that each year, building site theft costs the sector almost $25 million.

Contract works insurance can cover the building which is under construction, whether it’s a kit home, straw bale or mud brick home, multistory apartment or commercial buildings. It can also cover the equipment used in construction, as well as public liability risk.
Exclusions, the excess you need to pay and limits of liability can vary greatly depending on your insurer. Policies generally won’t include cover for:
Work underground or in water unless specifically agreed by the insurer.
