Every roofer needs a van. In fact, it is the first piece kit of a roofer must have in place before they can even think about stepping out the door and heading to work. And the next most important piece of kit? Well, it's roofer's van insurance of course.

However, standard insurance cover is not enough for the professional roofer. Instead, the law requires all roofers to have commercial vehicle cover. This is because roofers use their vehicles to conduct their business activity and, in the unlikely event of an accident, an insurer will only pay out if the appropriate type of insurance is in place.

In many cases, this may mean that roofers pay a slightly higher premium for their policy than they do for the one covering their personal vehicle. However, although it may be tempting to purchase a cheaper, standard insurance policy, in the event of something going wrong this could prove a dramatically false economy – it is also illegal. In short, says the Department of Transport, if you use your van for commercial gain, you will need roofer's van insurance.
