Builders risk protects a project while it is being built. Here is what it typically covers.
Covers the building or structure you are constructing or renovating if it is damaged by a covered event before the project is complete.
Protects building materials and supplies on site, in transit, or in storage, waiting to be used in the project.
Covers items intended to become part of the finished structure, such as fixtures, cabinetry, and installed systems.
Responds to risks like fire, wind, theft, and vandalism that can strike a job site during construction.
Builders risk is important for anyone with a financial stake in a construction project. That includes general contractors, builders, property owners, developers, and house flippers across Ocala, and lenders often require it before releasing construction financing. With Ocala among the fastest growing metro areas in the country, new construction and renovation are booming across the Ocala area, and builders risk protects that activity. Whether you are building a home, a commercial building, or completing a major renovation in Ocala, this coverage protects the work in progress.
Builders risk is a temporary policy that covers the construction phase of a project. It is usually purchased by the party responsible for the property during construction, often the general contractor or the property owner, and the cost is typically based on the total completed value of the project.
Coverage generally lasts for the length of the build and ends when the project is finished and ready for use, at which point a permanent property policy takes over.
We help Ocala builders set the right project value, term, and coverage so there are no gaps during or after the build.
Builders risk and general liability protect different things and most construction projects need both. Builders risk covers physical damage to the project itself. General liability covers third party injuries and property damage that happen because of your work.
Together they protect both the structure you are building and your responsibility to others.
