Generally covers

  • 01General liability arising from operations
  • 02Commercial property and equipment
  • 03Workers compensation, where the state requires it
  • 04Professional liability and cyber, depending on the work

Worth asking

  • ?Which lines your contracts and lease oblige you to carry
  • ?How payroll and revenue drive the premium
  • ?Whether owners and contractors are included or excluded
  • ?How coverage follows you across state lines
