As a carpenter or woodworker, you likely have a work vehicle which you use to carry tools, supplies and equipment. One of the biggest mistakes carpenters make is using their personal vehicle for their woodworking business. If a claim occurs and the insurance company see this vehicle is clearly being used for commercial purposes, they can decline the claim for misrepresentation. Have that on your record will make future policies extremely expensive. 

We have some of the best rates for carpenters and their commercial auto policies. Please call our licensed commercial insurance brokers at 905 366 0066.

What Insurance Policies Should Carpenters Have?

Whether you are a large carpentry  business with many employees working for you, or a solo woodworkers, your business risks are very similar. 

Some of the common policies many carpenters have include:

Commercial General Liability (CGL) tailored to your carpentry business. This could range from liability limits as little as $1,000,000 for the sole proprietor to $10,000,000+ for the big carpentry companies. 

Pollution Coverage. As a carpenter, you are dealing with saws and cutting regularly. If you for example damage a pipe or sewer line which causes pollution, you could have a claim brought against you. 

Tools And Equipment Coverage. If you have tools or carpentry equipment, you could add them to your CGL policy for a small fee. It’s important to note that many tools and equipment floaters do not cover theft from unattended or unlocked vehicles. It’s best to never leave your expensive equipment in a vehicle. 

Commercial Auto Insurance For Carpenters. Carpenters generally drive to their clients with tools and equipment in their vehicles. This require a specific commercial auto insurance policy designed for carpenters / woodworkers. Using your personal auto insurance policy for commercial use can result in denied claims. 

Property Insurance. Many carpenters and carpentry companies have shops or units where they saw, cut and work on their projects. This will often require a property insurance policy to cover that unit along with it’s content.
