Do you work with your hands to fix, install or build things? We’ll build you a customized business insurance policy to protect your business from risks.
Protection: You’re not just protecting your business financially. You’re also protecting people and property as well as your tools, equipment, and supplies. Help your business recover financially from accidental property damage and injuries to third parties. Work with confidence knowing that if tools and equipment get damaged or stolen, insurance can help with replacing them and get your business back up and running..
Attract the best: Give employees peace of mind when they start working for you. By insuring your contracting and construction business, you can attract and retain employees. Having insurance can also add to your credibility, which can enhance your reputation as an employer.
Show proof that customers can trust you: Customers may ask if you have proof of insurance before they decide to hire you. Arming yourself with a certificate of insurance will help your contracting business gain trust and could lead to more potential business.
We offer policies for a variety of contracting businesses in Ontario. Here’s a list of some of the types of businesses we protect:
There are a few risks to consider if you decide to run a contracting or construction business without insurance:
Poor reputation and fewer clients – It’s important to make a great professional impression when you meet with potential clients. Clients want to see that your business is licensed, registered, and insured. When you get a business insurance policy with TruShield, we provide you with a certificate of insurance.
Fall behind schedule – Your tools, equipment, and supplies are imperative to getting a job done. If your tools are damaged or stolen, can you easily afford to replace everything quickly while still working on a project? What happens if you’re on a really tight schedule with another project coming up? Having insurance can help you replace these items if they get damaged or stolen.
If you fall behind schedule, your business may face financial loss. This can affect your bottom line and set you back unexpectedly.
A basic contractors insurance policy will include commercial general liability (CGL)Â coverage with a $2 million or $5 million limit. If your business is sued by customers or third parties for property damage, injury, or death caused by your business or your employees, CGL will help protect your business from loss.
Getting more coverage means more protection for your business. Other coverages that contractors should consider include the following:
If you rely on specialized tools or equipment, you should protect them.
If you install things for your customers such as fixtures or other products, you should protect your business in case something gets damaged before or during the installation.
If you have access to confidential data like your customers’ personal information, protecting yourself against data breaches and cyber threats is important.
