Our Artisan and Truck Insurance Services

We offer a complete range of insurance products to protect every aspect of your business operations.

Trucking Insurance

Comprehensive coverage for owner-operators and fleets, including cargo, liability, physical damage, and trailer interchange. We handle DOT and FMCSA filings and specialize in hard-to-insure risks like new ventures and hazmat haulers.

Commercial Auto

Liability and physical damage protection for all vehicles used in your business, from a single work van to a full fleet. We cover owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, placing risks that standard markets often decline.

General Liability

Essential protection against third-party claims of bodily injury, property damage, and personal injury. We secure robust GL policies for businesses in every category, ensuring you're covered from daily operational risks.

Construction Insurance

Tailored programs for general contractors and specialty trades. Coverage includes contractor liability, tools and equipment, completed operations, and installation floaters to meet project and lender requirements.

Builder's Risk

Protect buildings and structures during construction or renovation. This policy covers materials, fixtures, and work in progress against theft, fire, weather, and vandalism from groundbreaking until project completion.

Professional Liability

Also known as Errors & Omissions (E&O), this covers claims of negligence or mistakes in your professional services. It's crucial for artisans who provide advice, designs, or consultations as part of their work.

Tailored Insurance Solutions

Customized Coverage to Protect Your Craft and Fleet

Your business is unique, and your insurance should be too. We don't offer one-size-fits-all policies. Instead, our risk management experts analyze your specific operations, from the tools you use to the cargo you haul, to build a custom insurance program. We partner with hundreds of carriers to find the precise coverage that protects your livelihood, ensuring you only pay for what you truly need.
