To determine how much public liability insurance to purchase for your company, you'll have to have a good idea of the risks and the business. To start with, you can take out a free quote from some insurance providers online and use this to gauge what the cost would be based on your business. If you're in a business that involves other people and property then it's likely going to be more expensive because they will need to cover more liability as well. But by doing this, you're able to get an idea of how much coverage is needed before you sign up with an insurer or even break ground on your project. There are also certain things that you can factor in, like how much insurance needs to be purchased for the business, what types of equipment the business will use, and who else is involved in the company to get a better idea of how much coverage they need.

If your business involves property or people then it's likely going to cost more to insure your company because you're more likely to cause damage. For instance, scaffolding used in a construction project could come down and injure someone. The insurance provider would have to pay for their medical treatment as well as any other expenses incurred as a result of this incident.
