Business insurance / General contractors

Insurance for general contractors

Your contracts spell out the coverage you need: limits, additional insureds, waivers of subrogation. We build your policies to match, so certificates don't hold up a job.

What a contractor program usually includes

Residential remodelers and commercial builders need different things. We'll start with the contracts you sign and the work you actually do.

General liability

Property damage and injuries from your work, including completed operations after the job is done.

Workers' compensation

Texas doesn't require it, but many project owners and general contractors won't let you on site without it.

Commercial auto

Pickups, work vans and trailers, plus coverage for employees using their own vehicles.

Tools & equipment

Inland marine coverage for tools and equipment at the shop, in transit and on the job.

Builder's risk

The structure itself while it's under construction or renovation.

Umbrella

Higher liability limits when a contract asks for $2 million or more.

Surety bonds

License, bid, performance and payment bonds.

Subcontractor review

We can help you check that your subs carry the coverage your contracts pass down to them.
