Coverage Options for Drywall Contractor

Travelers appetite for drywall is moderate. Large commercial projects and high subcontractor use may trigger referral.

General Liability

Protects against third-party claims of bodily injury, property damage, and advertising injury arising from your operations — the foundation of most commercial policies.

Workers Compensation

Covers medical costs and lost wages for employees injured on the job, and is required in California for nearly every business with employees.

Commercial Auto

Covers owned, leased, or hired vehicles used for business purposes, including liability and physical damage from accidents.

Inland Marine

Covers tools, equipment, and materials while in transit, in storage, or at a job site — property that a standard property policy may not follow.

Licensing, Certificates & Contract Requirements

Active CSLB (Contractors State License Board) license number and classification matched to work performed
Certificate of Insurance (COI) naming general contractors or property owners as additional insured, often required before work begins
Primary and non-contributory wording, and waiver of subrogation, frequently required in subcontract agreements
Proof of workers compensation coverage for any employees, per California labor law
Review of indemnification and hold-harmless clauses in construction contracts before signing
