Business Owners Policy

Bundles general liability and commercial property into a single, typically lower-cost policy for smaller and mid-sized operations.

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.

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
