This type of insurance offers protection in a variety of circumstances, as independent contractors can be held liable for various damages, including:

  • Bodily Injury
  • Property Damage
  • Tools & Equipment
  • Third Party Liability

Types of insurance available for contractors:

Commercial General Liability - Helps cover legal fees if faced with injuries, fatalities or property damage caused by a contractor’s work.

Business Property - Helps cover costs of damage to a contractor’s business location,  including fire, theft, vandalism, flood, explosion and extreme weather damage.

Equipment and Tools - From computers backhoes, this insurance helps protect contractors from losses caused by theft or damage of tools and equipment.

Commercial Auto - Offers protection if a company vehicle becomes damaged or stolen during work activities.

Professional Liability and Errors and Omissions - If a contractor makes an error or omits important information that negatively impacts a client, they are at risk of being sued. Professional liability and errors and omissions coverage can help cover costs associated with a lawsuit.

Cyber Event Expense Insurance - Managing operations online can help contractors save time, but it opens their business to online security threats. Cyber insurance helps contractors with financial loss or liabilities, resulting from a cyber related event.
