Insurance Coverage for Construction Contractors

Construction in Canada involves more risk than most other industries.
This basic insurance coverage protects you against general liability, property damage, personal injuries, theft and more.

Property Damage

Structural damage to existing property is a common scenario in construction projects. Even if the damage is discovered long after the project is completed, and even if the contractors may not be at fault, clients can still file a lawsuit which will likely require huge expenses in legal representation and settlement fees. 

Third-Party Bodily Injury

The risk of a bystander being injured during a construction project is difficult to overlook. Undiscovered structural damage, or pipe leakage may result in injuries, and contractors who worked on the project may be held liable. Construction liability insurance may cover you in cases where a third party suffers bodily injuries due to your work. 

Theft

Your job requires you to own important tools and equipment, and unfortunately, theft is a real problem. What if your tools are stolen while you’re working on a big project? Not only would you suffer from massive losses in property, but you may also be unable to complete your project.

Insurance Costs Depends on Many Factors

Number of Employees

The size of your team will affect your premium rate. In addition to the number of team members, insurance companies will factor in how many years of experience they have, as inexperienced subcontractors are exposed to greater risk. 

Location

Temperatures and weather conditions vary from coast to coast. If you’re in BC, Alberta, Ontario, or Nova Scotia weather risks are different and so are your policy costs. 

Other Factors

Working on residential buildings versus commercial buildings, number of stories in the buildings you work on, whether you do structural work on load-bearing walls or not – these are all factors that may affect your premium.

Property Theft

You store electrical wiring and equipment worth $20,000 in your trailer. When it’s time to travel to the site of construction in the morning, you discover that the lock on your trailer is broken, and your equipment stolen.

Fire Damage

While working on a condo renovation project, two of your employees try to weld a connection when one of them accidentally sets fire to the insulation in the wall. It takes some time to put out the fire, and unfortunately there is smoke damage in several rooms.

Whatever the circumstances are, being protected with a comprehensive construction insurance policy is the best option!
