Drywall work means heavy lifting, dust exposure, and tight deadlines on active job sites — a combination that makes general liability and workers' comp essential for every drywall contractor.
General liability covers third-party property damage and bodily injury — dust or debris damage to a client's belongings, or someone hurt near your work. Most GCs require at least $1 million per occurrence before you're allowed on site.
Workers' comp is required in California and critical given the injury risk from working on stilts, scaffolding, and lifts while handling heavy sheets.
Stilts, taping tools, and lifts represent a real investment — tools and equipment coverage replaces them fast if they're stolen or damaged so a job never stalls waiting on gear.
