Risks specific to the refrigeration technician profession

Risk profile of the profession

Working on refrigeration systems involves refrigerants, hot work (brazing) and a risk of loss of perishable goods in the event of failure.

Compliance and licensing

Most construction work in Quebec requires a license from the Régie du bâtiment (RBQ). The licence attests to your competence; Insurance protects your finances in the event of damage. Your customers will demand proof of both.

One comprehensive policy

Most businesses like yours bundle liability, tools, equipment, vehicles and property into a single comprehensive commercial policy — often better and simpler than separate policies.

Frequently asked questions

Am I responsible if a customer loses their goods after my intervention?
If the loss is due to a defect in your work, you may be held liable. This financial exposure justifies a sufficient limit of liability.
Is pipe brazing covered by my policy?
Hot work must be declared and covered by your policy. Many sites also require a hot work permit and preventive measures.
How much does insurance cost for a refrigeration company in Quebec?
The premium varies depending on your sales, the number of employees, your specific activities, your claims history and the limits chosen. As an indication, the civil liability of a small contractor is often between $500 and $1,800 per year, but the exact premium is established after analyzing your file. Comparing several insurers remains the best way to get a fair price.
What insurance is necessary for a refrigeration technician in Quebec?
The law does not impose civil liability on all companies, but your clients, clients and the Régie du bâtiment almost always require it. If you have employees, registration with the CNESST is mandatory.
Does my home insurance cover my business if I’m self-employed?
No. A home insurance policy excludes commercial activities. You need separate business insurance to cover your liability, tools, and professional equipment.
Am I covered if one of my employees is injured on a construction site?
Employees’ occupational injuries are covered by the CNESST’s public plan, to which you must contribute. Instead, your business insurance covers your liability to third parties as well as your property.
Are my tools covered if they are stolen from my truck?
Yes, with the Tools and Equipment endorsement, your tools are covered against theft and breakage, including off-site and in your vehicle. Check the applicable limit and deductible.
