What Does an Ohio Contractors Insurance Policy Cover?
Because every company is slightly different, some coverages and policy limits will vary from contractor to contractor, but for the most part, you’ll need:
Liability coverage: This includes general liability, EPLI, and an umbrella policy to protect against claims of damage or injury by others.
Commercial property: Protect your tools, equipment, and materials between jobs and on-the-job.
Commercial auto: You need auto insurance whether you own company vehicles, or you use your personal vehicle for work. A personal policy won’t cover you on the job.
Equipment breakdown: Unlike property insurance that covers theft, this helps you out when your equipment stops working. You can get it fixed or replaced and keep working without missing a beat.
Builder’s risk: When your job site is under construction, anything that can go wrong, usually will. Protect yourself and your site from storms, fire, and other perils that an in-progress construction site face.
