Contractors Insurance

Contracting and construction work can involve significant risks—from property damage and injuries to tools, vehicles, subcontractors, and job-site liability. The right insurance program can help protect your business when something unexpected happens.

Willard Insurance Agency can help contractors review their operations and build coverage around the work they actually perform.

Coverage Contractors Commonly Need

Contractor insurance is usually made up of several policies working together. The right combination depends on your trade, payroll, vehicles, tools, subcontractors, contracts, and job-site exposures.

General Liability

Helps protect your business from certain third-party claims involving bodily injury, property damage, and completed-operations liability.

Workers’ Compensation

Provides benefits for eligible employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses, subject to state law and policy terms.

Commercial Auto

Helps protect trucks, vans, and other vehicles used in your contracting business, including liability and physical damage options.

Tools & Equipment / Inland Marine

Can help protect portable tools, machinery, and equipment that travel between your shop, vehicles, and job sites.

Builder’s Risk

May help protect buildings and materials during certain construction projects while work is underway.

Umbrella / Excess Liability

Can provide additional liability limits above eligible underlying policies when a major claim exceeds those primary limits.

Contractor Risks Can Be Different From Other Businesses

Contractors often work at customer locations, transport equipment, use subcontractors, and perform work that can create completed-operations liability long after the job is finished. Insurance should reflect those realities.

Customer & Job-Site Injuries

A visitor, customer, or third party could be injured at your shop or on a work site.

Damage to Customer Property

Installation, repair, renovation, or construction work can accidentally damage property you are working on or around.

Completed Work Claims

A problem caused by completed work may not appear until weeks or months after the project is finished.

Tools, Materials & Equipment

Portable equipment can be stolen, damaged, or lost while being transported or used away from your primary location.

Pricing can vary significantly from one contractor to another because the work, payroll, tools, vehicles, and claims exposures can be very different.
