Common Builder's Risk Questions

Answers to what we hear most often.

Builder's risk coverage typically begins on the project start date and ends when construction is complete, the property is occupied, or the policy term expires — whichever comes first. We'll help you align the effective dates with your project timeline so there are no gaps in coverage.

Standard exclusions often include employee theft, mechanical breakdown, faulty workmanship, earthquake, flood, and normal wear and tear. General liability — if someone is injured on the jobsite — is also separate. We'll clearly walk you through what's covered and what requires separate policies.

Either party can purchase builder's risk, and the answer usually depends on the contract terms. In some cases the owner buys it; in others the general contractor does. It's important to confirm this before work begins to avoid coverage gaps or duplicate policies. We'll help you sort out who should carry the coverage based on your contract.

Completed value refers to the total projected cost of the project when finished, including labor and materials. This is the amount used to set your coverage limit. Underestimating it can leave you underinsured — we'll help you calculate an accurate figure so you're fully protected throughout the project.
