Builders Risk Insurance for Contractors, Developers & Lenders
Protect your project, materials, and investment from groundbreaking to completion.
Why Builders Risk Insurance Matters
Supporting copy:
From the moment a project breaks ground, contractors, developers, lenders, and property owners are exposed to risk. Builders Risk insurance is designed to protect your investment during construction, renovation, or major remodeling, so an unexpected loss doesn’t derail your timeline or your finances.
Key Benefits
- Protection for buildings actively under construction
- Coverage for materials, supplies, and equipment on-site
- Reduces financial loss from unexpected project damage
- Supports project continuity after covered events
- Protects construction timelines and capital investments
- Provides confidence for owners, contractors, and lenders
- Helps businesses recover faster from construction-related losses
What It Can Cover
- Fire and smoke damage
- Wind and storm damage
- Theft and vandalism
- Water damage from covered causes
- Materials stored on-site or in transit
- Temporary structures and scaffolding
- Soft costs related to project delays (optional coverages may apply)
- Debris removal expenses
Why Coverage Limits Matter
Soft costs and project timelines Accurate project valuation is critical. Underinsured projects can face significant out-of-pocket costs, delayed completion, and financing disruptions. When setting coverage limits, consider:
- Labor and material costs
- Current material pricing and inflation
- Equipment exposure
- Soft costs and project timelines
Lender & Contract Requirements
Builders Risk coverage is often a prerequisite for construction funding, contract finalization, and on-site work authorization. Strong coverage supports financing relationships, strengthens contractor credibility, and contributes to overall project stability.
One-Shot vs. Reporting Form Policies
