Construction Insurance – Build with confidence and assurance.
Stay protected from foundation to finish
Construction is an industry where things don’t always go to plan. Delays, accidents, and unexpected costs can throw even the most well-managed project into chaos. What would happen if a storm damaged your worksite? Or if someone was injured on-site? Would your business survive the financial hit?
At Guardian, we understand the high stakes in construction. Whether you’re building homes, commercial properties, or infrastructure, you need an insurance solution that keeps your projects moving forward. We’re here to help you find the right coverage so you can focus on getting the job done, without worrying about the what-ifs.
What does Construction Insurance cover?
Construction Insurance is designed to protect builders, contractors, and tradespeople from the unique risks that come with the job. Here’s what the right policy can cover:
Contract Works Insurance – Covers damage to your construction projects, including materials, tools, and structures during the build.
Public Liability Insurance – Protects you against claims if someone is injured or property is damaged due to your work.
Workers Compensation – Keeps your team protected if they suffer a work-related injury or illness.
Builders Warranty – Gives your client peace of mind by covering things like major defects or incomplete work the builder can’t fix themselves. Applies for a set period after construction is finished.
Plant and Equipment Insurance – Covers machinery, tools, and other essential construction equipment against theft, damage, or breakdown.
Professional Indemnity Insurance – If a client claims financial loss due to an error in your design or advice, this coverage has your back.
Commercial Motor Insurance – Protects your work vehicles and fleet so you can keep your business moving.
With the right protection in place, you can build with confidence, knowing that if the unexpected happens, your construction business won’t be left footing the bill.

Client feedback
Adam and Guardian have actively sought to understand the industry, our business and our insurance requirements. They have in turn communicated to us the insurers requirements and position and have provided advice and guidance as we have sought to work through solutions for our Builders Indemnity Insurance.
They have managed the placement of cover and issuing of certificates for homes, and have facilitated meetings with the insurer to ensure constructive dialogue is maintained and overseen our insurance reviews.
I have found them to be knowledgeable and approachable and have formed the view that Adam enjoys the profession he has chosen and helping his clients with their needs. He and Guardian have at all times acted professionally and with integrity and the highest praise I can give is to say is do not hesitate to recommend them to friends and colleagues.
