Why Scaffolding Contractors Need Specialized Insurance
Scaffolding contractors face high-risk working conditions, from managing heavy equipment to working at significant heights. Accidents, equipment failures, or property damage can lead to costly claims and project delays. A single incident, such as a collapsed scaffold or a worker injury, can have serious financial and legal consequences.
