National context — Tile Contractor insurance overview

Tile, terrazzo and marble work carries a trade exposure carriers now underwrite directly: respirable crystalline silica from cutting and grinding. General liability with products–completed-operations covers the installed work that fails after you leave the job, and workers' compensation covers a physical crew — but the silica question is what moves your rate. Shops that document OSHA-compliant wet-cutting under 29 CFR 1926.1153 get coverage without silica exclusions; dry-cutting shops face surcharges or exclusions.

As an industry-typical estimate, a tile contractor commonly needs GL to get on a general contractor's approved-vendor list even where no law mandates it, plus workers' comp on payroll. No insurance bureau publishes tile-contractor premiums, so every dollar here is an estimate; each fact is sourced to a named authority (OSHA, IRMI, III).
