If you’re an insurance producer looking to write more business and provide insurance solutions to your roofing clients, then Prime Insurance Company is the partner for you. As an excess and surplus lines insurance company, Prime can write roofing and contracting insurance with confidence.
Most of your roofing clients will need commercial general liability insurance suited to their specific needs. Prime Insurance Company works hard to understand each of our policyholders’ risks and exposures, so your clients will get the coverage they require.
As an insurance producer, there are many things you’ll want your client to be insured for, including:
Whether your client focuses on initial roof construction, re-roofing, or both, they can put their mind at ease knowing their residential or commercial roofing work is protected. Roofing insurance helps your contractor policyholders work without worry and can help you write more business.
The costs of a roofing-related lawsuit can be devastating for contractors. Good roofing insurance will defray those costs so your clients can continue with the work they love.
In Missouri, the state itself sued a housing contractor alleging a pattern of taking money for repair projects, not doing the work, and not refunding customers. One case involved $8,345 for roof installation, which was not performed. There is a similar issue in Pennsylvania, with the attorney general’s office filing suit against roofing contractors alleging fraud. And in Dayton, a roofing contractor was sentenced to prison and ordered to pay over $25,000 after failing to repair damage. A civil lawsuit followed.
In many cases, smaller clients and private homeowners are looking simply for proof of insurance. They want that additional security of knowing that their home and property are covered in the event of a problem or accident. Offering them proof of insurance and being knowledgeable about their concerns is not only a sound business practice, it’s great customer service.
Prime Insurance Company is dedicated to providing the right coverage at the right time. We understand that not every risk or exposure is clear, but we seek to uncover those underwriting concerns. With our extensive industry experience and excellent risk management practices, we can mitigate risks and help businesses move toward further success.
