Frequently Asked Questions

Does site prep contractor insurance cover heavy equipment?

Yes, inland marine coverage (also called equipment floater coverage) specifically covers heavy equipment like bulldozers, excavators, and scrapers against theft, damage, and breakdown. Make sure your policy covers equipment at job sites, not just at your yard.

What insurance do I need for land clearing?

Land clearing contractors typically need general liability, workers compensation, commercial auto, and inland marine for equipment. You may also want environmental liability coverage for erosion and sediment control issues.

How much does site prep contractor insurance cost?

Costs vary significantly based on the types and value of equipment you operate. Most site prep contractors pay $8,000-20,000/year for comprehensive coverage. Equipment-heavy operations with high-value machinery will be at the higher end.

Do I need special coverage for underground utility damage?

General liability typically covers damages from hitting utilities, but there may be exclusions. Some contractors add specific utility line coverage or ensure their policy doesn't have a utilities exclusion. Discuss your work scope with us to ensure proper coverage.
