Construction
We understand the construction industry, and with our affiliations, we work with more than 500 clients that are connected to the trade. From general contractors, heavy civil contractors, and developers to architects and engineers, we know what construction companies have to deal with on a daily basis relating to insurance and risk management. Potential liability exposures, hazardous conditions created by subcontractors, and more can leave contractors vulnerable, as there is no lack of things that can go wrong.
You need an insurance broker and trusted advisor who understands your risks and knows how to mitigate them. When you work with us, your risk becomes our risk. We have years of experience working with contractors, serving on industry boards, and proactively following trends and regulatory changes, and we can develop the right insurance program and risk management plan specific for your situation. When you are comfortable with and select a plan, we negotiate the best coverage and pricing with our underwriters. All along the way, you receive proactive, hands-on customer service that continues throughout our relationship.
