Project value
The limit may need to reflect labor, materials, contractor costs, and the completed value or construction budget required by the policy.

Construction and renovation coverage
Builders Risk Insurance
Coverage designed for property while it is being built or substantially renovated, with terms shaped around the project, budget, timeline, and parties involved.
Request a ReviewCoverage with context
The insurance should follow the project from the first day of work.
New construction and major renovation create risks that a standard property policy may not address. The contract, construction budget, existing structure, materials, financing, and expected completion date all help determine how builders risk coverage should be arranged.
What deserves attention
The policy should reflect the real risk.
We focus on the decisions that affect the property, income, liability, and people behind the policy.
Existing structure
Renovation projects may require separate treatment for the building that was already there before construction began.
Materials and transit
Materials stored on site, temporarily off site, or moving to the project may need to be addressed specifically.
Soft costs and delay
Financing expenses, professional fees, permits, taxes, and delayed completion may create costs beyond direct physical repairs.
Theft and site controls
Fencing, lighting, security, fire protection, vacancy, and site access can affect eligibility, deductibles, and coverage terms.
Contracts and liability
The owner, developer, general contractor, lender, and other parties should be coordinated with the project contracts and separate liability policies.
Already insured? That is where we start.
The project schedule and the insurance schedule should agree.
We review what is being built, who owns it, who is performing the work, how the project is financed, and when coverage should begin and end. Available terms depend on the project and current underwriting requirements.

Local perspective. Broad capability.
Southern California construction requires careful timing and documentation.
Project values, catastrophe exposure, site conditions, construction type, and local rebuilding costs may affect the coverage and markets available.
We help organize the submission before work begins and review how builders risk connects with general liability, property ownership, and the insurance needed after completion.
Common questions
Clear answers before the review begins.
What does builders risk insurance cover?
It may cover physical damage to work in progress, materials, and certain related costs. The exact causes of loss, property covered, exclusions, and deductibles depend on the policy.
Who should purchase the policy?
The owner, developer, or contractor may be responsible depending on the construction contract and lender requirements. The parties should agree before work begins.
When should coverage start?
Coverage should generally be arranged before construction or major renovation begins. Starting work first may create eligibility problems or an uninsured period.
When does builders risk coverage end?
A policy may end at expiration, occupancy, completion, sale, or another event stated in the policy. Permanent property coverage should be coordinated before the builders risk policy ends.
