Frequently asked questions

In most cases, yes. Standard home and commercial property insurance policies do not typically cover construction-related work, such as renovations, extensions, demolition, or other contract work taking place on your property. Construction insurance is designed to fill that gap, providing coverage for the property or structure while it’s under construction, as well as the existing building while in a contractor’s control.

Construction insurance can also include public liability coverage. If a member of the public is injured or killed, or their property is damaged because of your team’s negligence during construction, your policy can pay for court-awarded damages and legal defence costs, up to the policy limit.

In most cases, yes. While subcontractors may have their own liability insurance, it’s important to understand exactly what their policies cover.

Subcontractor policies often have lower liability limits than you may need, or cover only the subcontractor — not you, your business, or the property owner.

To avoid gaps in coverage, it’s important to have your own insurance in place. Construction all risks insurance helps protect your business — or your property — regardless of the limits or restrictions of your subcontractors’ policies.
