One and two crew shops

Coverage sized for a small contracting business

You are not a regional contractor and you should not be paying like one. But you also cannot skip coverage the contract requires.

Where small contractors overspend

These are the four most common ways a small shop pays more than it should.

Small-shop questions

I just started. Can I get coverage with no history?

Yes. First-year contractors are placed regularly, often with a surplus lines carrier until there is a track record.

What if my payroll changes a lot during the year?

A pay-as-you-go or monthly reporting policy handles that without an audit surprise.

Do I need commercial auto for one truck?

Usually yes. A personal auto policy will not cover a vehicle used for business, and it will not cover the tools inside.

Where a small shop can legitimately save

Report payroll accurately instead of over-insuring on a guess

Match the classification to the actual work rather than the broadest one

Carry the limits the contract requires, not the highest available

Bundle general liability and workers comp where a carrier offers a credit

What small contractors actually need

A real policy, not a minimum

State minimums rarely satisfy a contract. We quote to the contract, not the statute.

Affordable entry point

Lower minimum premiums for new and small contracting businesses.

Room to grow

Payroll and classifications adjust as you add crews, without starting over.

Tools coverage

Optional inland marine for tools and equipment, on and off site.
