Running a drywall contracting business comes with a unique set of risks. From on-site accidents to property damage, having the right business insurance coverage is critical to protect your employees, tools, and projects.

This guide will help you understand what types of insurance drywall contractors need and how to get a fast, reliable quote from Wexford Insurance.


Drywall Contractor


General liability insurance is the foundation of any contractor’s coverage. It protects your business from claims related to:

  • Bodily injury to clients, visitors, or third parties

  • Property damage caused during a job

  • Legal defense costs if your business is sued

This coverage ensures that you are protected if an accident happens on a job site.


If you have employees, workers’ compensation insurance is usually required by law. It provides coverage for:

  • Medical expenses for work-related injuries

  • Lost wages due to workplace accidents

  • Rehabilitation or disability benefits if needed

Workers’ compensation protects your employees while shielding your business from lawsuits related to injuries on the job.


Most drywall contractors use trucks, vans, or trailers to transport tools and materials. Commercial auto insurance covers:

  • Accidents on the road or job site

  • Vehicle theft, damage, or vandalism

  • Liability claims related to business vehicle use

This insurance ensures that your vehicles, which are essential to your work, remain protected and operational.


Your drywall tools and equipment are the backbone of your business. Tools and equipment insurance protects against:

  • Theft of hand and power tools

  • Accidental damage while on job sites

  • Replacement costs for expensive or specialized equipment

Having this coverage reduces downtime and keeps your projects on schedule.
