Builders Risk Insurance, also known as Course of Construction Insurance, is a tailored policy that provides coverage for commercial and residential buildings during the entire construction process.
This includes ground-up projects, renovations, and installations, while protecting you against damage from events such as fire, wind, theft, vandalism, and certain natural disasters. Our Builder’s Risk policies cover the building materials, fixtures, and equipment used in the construction project.
If you have a financial interest in a new construction, remodeling, or installation projects, Builders Risk Insurance is crucial to protect your investment and avoid financial setbacks.
All constructions should have a Builders Risk Policy, even if you take all the necessary precautions. They have a lot of risks and these can delay a project. This insurance keeps you protected in case of loss or damages that are expensive to fix.
