The Risks Every Contractor Faces

Whatever you build, install, or repair β€” these are the exposures that can shut a job down or sink a business.

πŸ€•

Job Site Injuries

One accident β€” yours or a client's β€” can mean a lawsuit that threatens everything you've built.

Most Common
🏚️

Property Damage

A cut pipe, a cracked slab, a fire from a stray spark β€” client property damage claims add up fast.

🧰

Stolen Tools & Equipment

Trucks and job sites get hit. Without coverage, replacing tools comes straight out of pocket.

πŸ“„

Contract & COI Demands

No certificate, no job. GCs and property managers won't let you on site without proof of coverage.

β›ˆοΈ

Weather & Delays

Storms, floods, and site conditions can damage work-in-progress and push back your timeline.

πŸ‘·

Subcontractor Liability

Work you hand off can still come back on you if a sub isn't properly insured.

Coverage for Every Contracting Business

We build a policy around your trade β€” not a one-size-fits-all package.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need general liability insurance as a contractor?

Most states and nearly all GCs and property managers require it before you can step on a job site. Even where it's not legally required, it protects you from claims that could otherwise come straight out of pocket.

How fast can I get a certificate of insurance?

Same-day, in most cases. Once you're bound with a carrier, we can issue a COI the same business day so you're never held up starting a job.

What's the difference between general liability and workers' comp?

General liability covers third-party injuries and property damage. Workers' comp covers your own employees' medical costs and lost wages if they're hurt on the job β€” most states require it once you have employees.

Do subcontractors need their own insurance?

Yes β€” and you should collect a certificate of insurance from every sub before they start work. If a sub isn't properly insured, their claims can end up coming back on your policy.
