Builders Risk Insurance

When a loss occurs there could be significant financial impact both to repair or replace the property and keep work moving forward.

We have extensive experience placing property programs that include builders risk, inland marine and contractor’s equipment. We focus on the particulars that matter, such as coverage wording, maintenance of proper limits and comprehensive evaluation of our client’s assets. As business risks are ever-changing, we are here to provide guidance and make sure our clients’ programs adapt.

Each project has unique needs. Our team members have experience with various projects types including:

• Commercial buildings
• Bridges and tunnels
• International risks
• New construction and renovation
• Power and utilities
• Residential
• Streets and roads
• Water treatment plants

We leverage our valued market relationships to procure comprehensive coverage tailored to the particular risks of the project. We have expertise with inland marine insurance including:

• Builders risk (CAR/EAR)
• Contractor’s equipment
• Deductible buy-down
• Difference in conditions/difference in limits
• High hazard natural catastrophe risks
• Installation floaters
• Master programs
• Parametric
• Tunnel boring machines

As there is no standardized policy form for builders risk, coverage will vary from insurer to insurer and project to project. Complex issues, such as defective work and delays in project completion, require detailed expertise to navigate properly. We understand these nuances. When properly structured, a builders risk policy is a critical part of a successful risk management program.

Our professionals dedicate time to following and understanding trends in the builder’s risk marketplace. We have meaningful relationships with both direct and reinsurance markets. This helps us identify market shifts to put our clients ahead of the curve.
