Demolition Contractor Insurance
In a specialized and high-risk field like demolition, understanding the industry-specific risks (like asbestos, structural collapse, etc.) and the availability of policies from the Australian insurers that cover them are requirements of the insurance broker that you will be working with. Demolition and asbestos-related work are usually excluded by standard liability insurance policies.
In Australia, there are some insurance brokers with a good reputation who deal mainly with demolition and asbestos removal insurance.
