Inland marine insurance can cover a wide variety of specialized types of property, including contractor’s equipment, medical equipment, fine arts, cameras, musical instruments, solar panels and wind turbines, from physical damage threats, including fire, water, collapse, theft, vandalism and weather-related events, while such property is being transported or stored at a temporary location.  Over the road collisions or accidents can also cause damage to property in transit, so it’s important to have experienced underwriting and claims professionals who understand these risks and can tailor insurance to meet your needs.       Buildings under construction face a great number of physical damage threats including fire, water, collapse, theft, vandalism and weather-related events. Builder’s risk insurance can help cover the direct and related costs and expenses due to damages during projects for new construction or renovations to buildings or structures.  Some common construction projects requiring builder’s risk coverage are commercial, retail, residential, manufacturing, institutional and infrastructure. Our risk management resources include industry specific best practices and general resource information from OSHA, SAFER, CAMEO and NFPA.
