Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of builders risk insurance?

Builder's risk insurance exists to protect a construction project's financial investment during the building phase. It covers the structure under construction, on-site materials, and temporary installations against losses from fire, theft, vandalism, wind, and other covered perils. Without it, a single weather event or theft incident could result in significant out-of-pocket costs that delay or derail a project entirely.
