What risks and claims does home inspector insurance typically cover?

Coverage typically includes: 

  • Bodily injury or property damage during inspections (e.g., a client trips on your ladder). 
  • Professional mistakes or omissions (e.g., missing structural damage). 
  • Tool or property loss from on-site damage or theft. 
  • Auto accidents while traveling to inspections. 
  • Workplace injuries to yourself or staff. 

Even a simple claim can snowball. The right insurance stops that from becoming your reality.
