imar, insurance brokerage for trades, construction and small businesses

imar is an Australian insurance brokerage operating under the licence of Arthur J. Gallagher & Co (AUS) Limited (ABN 34 005 543 920; AFSL 238312). The firm has over 35 years of experience insuring tradespeople, builders and small businesses, and presents itself as "the tradie's mate". Its approach is based on cover with trade-specific endorsements and a streamlined application process.

Cover for trades

The range aimed at sole traders and small trade businesses includes public liability, trade-specific insurance, injury and illness cover, and custom cover packages. The company states that there is no trade it has not seen before and that, if a new one appears, it quickly adapts to its technical particularities.

Solutions for builders

For the construction sector, imar offers public liability, contract works insurance, mobile plant and equipment cover, and tailored cover packages. The firm publishes content on sector risks, such as site safety and regulatory changes in residential building in Victoria.

Protection for small businesses

The small business section brings together public and products liability, professional indemnity, management liability, commercial motor insurance, cyber risk cover and comprehensive business packages.

Service and operational capabilities

The company highlights its in-house claims team, instant issuance of the Certificate of Currency, a local team of specialists and over three decades of accumulated experience. It also maintains a network of partners and ambassadors with whom it collaborates, and publishes a blog with articles on insurance myths for trades, common mistakes in gardening businesses and risks on construction sites.

Corporate and legal information

imar operates as the trading name of Arthur J. Gallagher & Co (AUS) Limited, an entity authorised to provide insurance brokerage and related services. The firm warns that the content of its website is general in nature and does not constitute specific advice for each client, and refers to the review of Product Disclosure Statements (PDS), policy wordings and the Financial Services Guide (FSG) before taking out insurance.
