Drywall contracting is a physically demanding trade that comes with its share of risks—heavy lifting, working at heights, and exposure to dust and debris. Whether you're hanging sheetrock or finishing walls, your crew faces potential injuries every day. That’s why having the right workers compensation insurance isn’t just smart—it’s essential.

Common Risks in Drywall Contracting

Drywall work may seem routine, but it involves hazards that can lead to serious injuries:

  • 💪 Muscle strains from lifting and positioning heavy drywall sheets

  • 🪜 Falls from ladders or scaffolding during installation

  • 🧱 Cuts and abrasions from utility knives and power tools

  • 🌫️ Respiratory issues from drywall dust and joint compound fumes

Without proper coverage, a single workplace injury could result in costly medical bills, legal claims, and lost productivity.

  • 🏥 Medical expenses for injured employees
