Risk Management Support

We help you identify potential jobsite hazards and implement safety protocols to reduce claims, control losses, and potentially lower your premiums.

Essential Insurance Coverages:

  • General Liability Insurance: Your foundation. Protects your business from third-party claims of bodily injury or property damage that occur on your jobsite or as a result of your work.
  • Workers' Compensation: A must-have for your crew. Covers medical expenses and lost wages for employees injured on the job, while protecting you from lawsuits.
  • Builder's Risk (Course of Construction): Protects the structure and materials on-site from events like fire, theft, and vandalism during the construction process.
  • Commercial Auto Insurance: Covers your fleet of work trucks, vans, and other vehicles against liability and physical damage.
  • Inland Marine Insurance (Tools & Equipment): Your tools are your livelihood. This policy protects them whether they are on a jobsite, in storage, or in transit.
  • Contractor's Professional Liability (E&O): Crucial for design-build firms and GCs, this covers financial losses arising from errors in design or faulty workmanship.
  • Surety Bonds: We can help you secure the performance, payment, and bid bonds required to win the jobs you want.
