Our Electrical Contractor Insurance Services

Comprehensive commercial coverage designed for electrical contractors — from liability and workers comp to tools and completed operations.

General Liability

Protects your electrical contracting business against third-party bodily injury and property damage claims arising from your operations, whether on a job site or at a client's commercial facility.

Professional Liability

Covers claims of faulty workmanship, design errors, or negligent electrical work — essential for contractors who provide design-build, inspection, or consulting services alongside installation.

Builder's Risk

Protects electrical installations, materials, and equipment during the course of a commercial construction project, from initial wiring through project completion and final inspection.

Commercial Auto

Covers your work trucks, vans, and service vehicles used to transport crew and equipment to commercial job sites, including hired and non-owned auto for employees using personal vehicles.

Workers Compensation

Provides wage replacement and medical benefits for electrical workers injured on the job — a mandatory coverage in most states and critical for high-risk electrical and construction environments.

Risk Management Services

Soma's Risk Management Team analyzes your electrical contracting operations, identifies coverage gaps, and places the right commercial program at the right price — fast, through a single application.

Tailored Contractor Programs

Commercial Electrical Contractor Coverage Built for Your Operations

Electrical contractors carry some of the heaviest liability exposure in the construction trades — arc flash hazards, completed operations claims, and strict NEC compliance requirements mean standard business policies rarely provide adequate protection. Soma works with specialty carriers like Chubb, Liberty Mutual, and Kinsale to structure programs that address every layer of your risk: on-site operations, tools and equipment, completed work, and your commercial fleet. One application. Fast placement. Coverage that actually fits.
