Why it’s Important to Speak with a Contracting Insurance Specialist When Looking for South Dakota Contractors Insurance.

Contractors insurance can be very complicated! For example: a standard general liability insurance policy will not provide you the necessary coverage to protect vehicles that you own and use in your contracting business.

You would need commercial auto insurance to protect that exposure in most instances. If you are using your personal automobile in your contracting business and it’s listed on your commercial auto policy, you might have a problem. Understand the vehicle must be titled to the company for coverage to apply in most cases. Some companies offer an endorsement that help you cross this bridge.

There are literally dozens of different types of scenarios that could occur that would not be covered by a standard general liability insurance policy so purchasing the cheapest one, might not be the answer. Also, many of the things a general contractor might ask for, might be Greek to your normal car insurance agent.
