With the right policy, you and your business will have an easier time providing services to customers and avoiding potential risks that can interrupt your operations.

There are numerous types of coverage for all contractors. Each of these types of policies can cover a specific aspect of your operations whether it’s excavation, land clearing, or landscaping. It is highly recommended that you look into all of the relevant policies so that they can ensure proper coverage at all times.
• Building Risk Coverage
This type of coverage protects builders and owners against damage that occurs when earthwork is done around buildings that are under construction. A builder’s risk policy will protect all of the materials, equipment, and property associated with a given project.
