Builders Risk Insurance in Jonesboro, GA

A construction project carries financial exposure from the moment ground breaks until the final inspection is signed off. Without the right coverage in place, a single fire, storm or act of vandalism can derail a project and leave contractors, developers and property owners absorbing losses out of pocket. Builders risk insurance exists to close that gap, and working with the right agency can make a difference in how well your project is covered. a construction worker is working on the side of a building

What Is Builders Risk Insurance?

Builders risk insurance is a specialized property policy that can cover structures under construction or renovation. Unlike commercial property insurance, it can account for the unique exposures of an active job site, including materials in transit and temporary structures.

Common covered perils include:

  • Fire and lightning
  • Wind and hail
  • Theft of materials and equipment on-site
  • Vandalism and malicious mischief
  • Water damage from certain sources

Coverage will typically last for the duration of the project. Policies can be extended to cover soft costs such as architectural fees and permit expenses when a covered loss causes delays.

Why Do Georgia Businesses Need This Coverage?

General liability or commercial property policies are not designed to cover structures mid-construction. Gaps in coverage during construction can expose contractors and owners to significant financial liability. A builders risk policy helps cover what other policies leave out.
