Common Coverages for Contractors & Small Businesses

General Liability

Protects you if a client or third party alleges bodily injury or property damage from your work. This is the foundation of any contractor or business policy.

Tools & Equipment (Inland Marine)

Covers your portable tools, equipment, and materials — whether on the jobsite, in transit, or stored in a trailer or warehouse.

Business Property

Protects your shop, office, or storage building against fire, theft, vandalism, or storm damage.

Commercial Auto

Covers your work vehicles for both liability and physical damage. Optional hired and non-owned coverage protects borrowed or employee-owned vehicles used for business.

Workers’ Compensation (where applicable)

Helps protect your team with coverage for workplace injuries or illness (state-specific requirements vary).

Umbrella Liability

Adds an extra layer of protection above your general liability, auto, and employer’s liability limits.

Optional Enhancements

  • Contractor’s Equipment Rental Coverage

  • Installation Floater (for materials awaiting installation)

Contractors & Small Business Insurance FAQs

Do I need insurance if I’m a solo contractor?
Yes. Even small one-person operations face liability exposures and tool theft risk. Affordable basic coverage protects your income and reputation.

What’s the difference between general liability and workers’ comp?
General liability covers injuries to others (like clients). Workers’ comp covers injuries to your employees.

Are my tools covered in my vehicle?
Only if you have inland marine (tools & equipment) coverage — auto policies don’t protect your gear.

Do landlords or general contractors require proof of insurance?
Usually yes — we can issue Certificates of Insurance quickly to help you meet contract requirements.
