Insurance Essentials: What Glazing Contractors Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions for Glazing Contractors

Q: Do glazing contractors set up scaffolding for their projects?

A: Yes, many glazing contractors set up scaffolding, particularly when working on multi-story buildings or installations at significant heights. This increases the risk of accidents, both in terms of worker safety and potential property damage. Having general liability insurance and workers compensation insurance is essential to protect your business in case of injury or damage during scaffolding setup or use.

Q: At what heights do glazing contractors typically work?

A: Glazing contractors can work at a variety of heights depending on the project, ranging from ground-level installations to multi-story buildings. The risk increases with height, as workers face greater exposure to falls and accidents, making workers compensation and general liability coverage crucial for protecting your business and employees.

Q: How does the number of employees impact insurance needs?

A: The number of employees directly affects your insurance requirements, especially when it comes to workers compensation and general liability coverage. Larger teams may require higher coverage limits to ensure that all potential risks—such as injuries, accidents, and damage—are adequately covered. At The Horton Group, we customize your insurance package based on your workforce size and the specific needs of your glazing business.

Q: Do glazing contractors need coverage for transporting their glass?

A: Yes, many glazing contractors transport glass to job sites themselves. In transit, glass is vulnerable to damage, whether from accidents, weather, or improper handling. Glass and installation insurance, along with commercial auto insurance, can cover the cost of replacing damaged glass and protect your vehicles during transport.
