Builders Risk Insurance

Builder’s risk insurance is coverage for physical loss or damage to your company’s materials, fixtures and equipment, which are being used during construction or renovation of a building.

Why do I need Builders Risk Insurance?

Taking on a new a build or rehab can be a costly undertaking. If a loan is being used to pay for the build, the lender will require a Builders Risk Insurance policy is in place prior to funding. This protects the lender in the event of a loss. The same is true if you are in a position to cover the cost of a build or rehab yourself without the need for a lender. In this case you are insuring that in the event your project catches fire or is wiped out by a windstorm you have insurance to reimburse your losses. This coverage is extremely important. Covered losses may include:

• Fire
• Wind
• Water
• Theft

Can I purchase Builders Risk Insurance as a homeowner?

Absolutely you can. A homeowner may act as an owner builder when building or rehabbing a home they use as their primary residence. However, it is wise to hire a credible General Contractor if you lack experience in the various aspects of construction.
