Frequently asked Questions contractors ask before they call.
How fast can I get covered?
Most contractors get quote options within 2 business hours after we have the underwriting information. Standard GL can often bind same day. Builder's risk for active projects is typically bound in 1 to 2 days.
My GC sent me a contract with an insurance schedule I don't understand.
Send it over. We'll tell you exactly what your GC is asking for and whether your current policy already covers it. Primary/non-contributory wording, additional insured status, waiver of subrogation, all standard asks we deal with daily.
Do you work in my state?
Yes. We serve contractors in all 50 states through appointed carrier partners and surplus-lines markets. Tell us where the work is and we’ll confirm carrier availability for your trade.
How do you get better pricing?
We shop 10+ carriers in parallel on every submission. Most brokers work with two or three. More competition means better terms.
How fast can I get a COI?
Once you're bound and we have the holder details, we typically issue COIs in under 60 seconds.
What if I have claims history?
Doesn't automatically disqualify you. We work with carriers that specialize in non-standard risks and can usually still find competitive coverage.
Is there a fee to talk?
No. Quotes are free, no obligation. We're paid by the carrier when you bind. Calling costs you nothing.
