Customers hire remodeling contractors to complete various home improvement projects including renovations, additions, and other handyman projects. They trust you to treat their home repair project with integrity and create a result they are proud to show their family and friends. As a home improvement contractor, you need remodeling insurance to protect from lawsuits that can cause financial hardship.
Businesses that fall under this industry include remodeling construction, for-sale remodelers, remodeling design-build, and remodeling project management firms. Their services include additions, alterations, reconstruction, maintenance, and repair of residential buildings.
Going into customer homes increases the number and severity of the risks you face daily. A few of these risks include:
Insurance companies look at home improvement contractors differently. The majority will want to know your history in the field, previous claims history, safety precautions, and hiring procedures before quoting your remodeling contractor insurance. You can receive a quote online by completing the insurance quote form below. The following numbers give you a first average:
Communicate with your client as often as possible. Without proper communication, you'll face being sued for not doing the job as requested. Make sure that your employees have adequate protection as one accident could result in thousands of dollars in medical fees. Also, make sure to have an insurance that covers all the liability risks that your remodeling project could encounter.
General liability cover for a construction company covers:
Cover for products-completed operations: This protects you if you damage rented commercial space or if an employee causes bodily harm or property damage. It protects you against reputation-related lawsuits that involve libel or slander. It also protects you if you’re slammed with an advertising injury lawsuit. Those involve either copyright infringement or false advertising.
Product liability: This ensures that your general liability protections against injury and property damage claims continue after you've complete the job.
Residential remodelers can defend themselves against charges of poor craftsmanship. When you add Poor Workmanship coverage to your CGL insurance, you may protect yourself and your clients from claims originating from faulty workmanship, materials, and products that would otherwise be excluded. The endorsement provides a high level of coverage at a very low price.
