    In construction, risk is part of the job — protection should be part of the plan

    If you work in construction, you know every project has variables you can't control: on-site accidents, third-party damage, expensive equipment in constant use, and human error. In Washington, contractors must register with L&I and most clients require proof of $1M+ in General Liability before signing a contract.

    Tools & Equipment (Inland Marine)

    Covers tools and portable equipment wherever they go — at the shop, in transit, on the job site, or in your truck overnight. Standard property policies often exclude this.

    Commercial Auto

    Required if you use vehicles for business — transporting tools, hauling materials, or moving crews. Personal policies exclude commercial use.

    Workers' Compensation

    Mandatory in Washington for contractors with employees. Pays medical bills and lost wages for on-the-job injuries — and shields you from employee lawsuits.

    What Many Contractors Underestimate

    A Certificate of Insurance (COI) isn't just paperwork — it's often a contract requirement before you can step on site. Most clients require Additional Insured status and Waiver of Subrogation endorsements. Missing these can delay payment or terminate a contract entirely.
