Building contractors

Let's build a great SA together

In a nutshell

The building industry is a major job creator. This sector contributes around 15% to gross fixed investment, and together with civil works, makes up 45% of total investment, the essential component of infrastructural development. In short, the building industry drives our South African economy like a speedboat through open waters. It just makes sense that building contractors have cover that suits their specific risks… Which is what we offer. Take a look at the nuts and bolts of what's covered below.
