Commercial Construction Insurance

Commercial Insurance Second Opinions for Contractors

Payroll, fleet, equipment, subcontractors, and project mix change faster than most insurance programs. Groundline organizes what’s changed into the Groundline Brief so your program is ready for a second look before renewal.

Simple intake. No obligation. Built for commercial businesses.

01/What changes

Your business changes. Your insurance program should keep up.

Contractor insurance is typically built around a snapshot of the business. As operations shift, a construction insurance review is a way to check whether the program still reflects how the company works today.

  • Payroll

    Headcount, wages, and job classifications as crews grow or shift.

  • Fleet

    The vehicles you run, who drives them, and how they are used.

  • Equipment

    Owned, leased, and rented equipment moving between job sites.

  • Subcontractors

    How much work is subcontracted and what is asked of subs.

  • Project mix

    The types, sizes, and locations of the work you take on.

  • Contract requirements

    Insurance terms, limits, and certificates your contracts call for.

  • Property / yard

    Offices, shops, yards, and stored materials.

  • Workers’ compensation

    Coverage for employees as payroll and class codes change.

  • General liability

    Liability tied to ongoing operations and completed work.

  • Commercial auto

    Coverage for company vehicles and the people who drive them.

  • Umbrella / excess

    How liability limits line up with contracts and operations.

02/Timing

When a second look makes sense

Many contractors take another look ahead of a contractor insurance renewal, but it can make sense whenever the business changes.

  • Approaching renewal
  • Payroll changes
  • Fleet changes
  • New equipment
  • Changing subcontractor use
  • Larger contracts
  • New project types
  • Geographic expansion
  • Acquisitions
  • Rapid growth
  • Pricing concerns
  • Service concerns
  • Wanting another perspective
