Insurance Solutions for Artisan Contractors!


Recognizing that small- to mid-sized trade contractors can have little property exposure but still need an adequate level of insurance for their business, we are excited to introduce a new turnkey solution that simplifies the buying process for artisan contractors.

Initially available in Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania, we are working on additional states for launch later this year.

CONTRACTORS GENERAL LIABILITY

Our Contractors General Liability coverage is designed to provide financial protection against third-party claims for bodily injury, property damage, and more with popular industry add-ons available including those below.

Add-Ons:

Inland Marine

Errors & Omissions

Hired & Non-Owned Auto Liability

Blanket Additional Insured

Blanket Waiver of Subrogation

Courtney Hill - Chief Underwriter
“Artisan contractors are an important segment of GUARD’s appetite, and this launch reflects our continued focus on delivering flexible, right-sized coverage to our customer base. By pairing General Liability with companion Inland Marine coverage and other optional add-ons like Errors & Omissions and Hired and Non-Owned Auto Liability, the result is a turnkey solution that simplifies the buying process for many types of contractors.”

INLAND MARINE

Offered as a companion policy to General Liability, our Inland Marine coverage is designed to protect tools, equipment, goods and materials.

An ideal fit for contractors who:

  • primarily operate at third-party locations or job sites
  • need protection from third-party claims for bodily injury or property damage
  • need same day coverage and certificate of insurance
  • travel with/transport tools and equipment to job sites
