    Frequently Asked Questions

    What insurance exposures do Contractors have?

    Contractors, like any other profession, have the risk of making mistakes that lead to legal action from financial loss or injury of others. However; another loss that Contractors tend to face more frequently than some other professions would be theft. Contractors often store their tools and equipment on a job site which can pose a potential for theft depending on the site and security. These tools and equipment can be very expensive which causes a large financial loss for the Contractor.

    What coverage is recommended for a Contractor?
    • Commercial General Liability
    • Property Coverage (Building – if applicable, Tools & Equipment)
    • Commercial Automobile Insurance (if using your vehicle for work/carrying tools & equipment)

    While those are the main coverage for a person working in this industry, there is more coverage available depending on your specific business operations.
