Who is this for?
This page is for professional solar panel installers & renewable energy installation businesses across the UK, including:
Domestic solar panel installers

Businesses offering solar PV installation, maintenance, testing and commissioning services
Whether you’re just starting out or expanding your installation services, you need specialist insurance that understands the unique risks in your industry.
Why solar panel installers need insurance?
Running a solar panel installation business exposes you to many risks that standard business insurance doesn’t cover. From accidental damage to customer property, to injuries, faulty workmanship claims or equipment loss, you need an insurance partner who understands solar installers’ specific exposures.
Specialist solar panel installation insurance can include cover such as:
Public Liability Insurance – Protection if a customer or member of the public claims for injury, damage or loss related to your business activities.
Contractors’ All Risks Cover – Protects you if installed panels, materials or works in progress are damaged, stolen or destroyed.
Professional Indemnity Insurance – Covers claims arising from design errors, incorrect advice or specification issues.
Employers’ Liability Insurance – A legal requirement if you have staff, covering claims from employees injured at work.
Products Liability Insurance – Protection if installed systems later cause injury or property damage.
Tools, Plant & Equipment Cover – Cover for tools, testing equipment, lifting gear and specialist installation equipment.
Business Interruption & Additional Covers – Optional covers to protect your income and ongoing business risks.
These specialist policies are designed for your trade — they protect you, your business and the clients who trust you with their property.
Key Covers We Can Arrange for Solar Panel Installation Businesses
1. Public Liability Insurance
Protects you if a claim is made against you for accidental injury to clients, damage to property, or incidents arising from your installation work. Public liability for solar installers typically includes work at height, heat works and third-party property damage.
2. Contractors’ All Risks Cover
This is specialist protection for materials, panels and ongoing installation projects — covering loss or damage that standard liability policies often exclude.
3. Employers’ Liability Insurance
If you employ anyone — even part-time — this cover protects against claims from your staff if they’re injured while working.
