What affects general contractor insurance cost?

General contractor insurance cost depends on operations, payroll, revenue, subcontractor costs, claims history and the coverage and limits requested. New construction, remodeling, commercial projects and work performed by your own crew can create different underwriting questions. Compare the policy terms and exclusions, not just the premium.

General Contractor Insurance Questions

What's the difference between a GC policy and a subcontractor policy?

GC policies typically cover broader operations, including oversight of subs and job site liability. Subs carry their own policies, but you may still be named on certain claims.

Do I need Builder's Risk on every project?

It depends on the project. Lenders usually require it for new construction. Even when not required, Builder's Risk protects you against losses during the build phase.

How do I manage insurance requirements for my subcontractors?

We can help you create a subcontractor insurance checklist and certificate tracking process so you're always protected if a sub causes an incident.

Can I get a blanket additional insured endorsement?

Yes — many of our GC policies include blanket additional insured language, which simplifies adding owners, developers, and lenders to your policy.
