Common questions answered
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
What insurance does a paving contractor typically need?
Paving contractors commonly consider general liability, commercial auto, workers’ compensation, tools and equipment coverage, inland marine insurance, and umbrella or excess liability. Depending on the operation, additional coverage such as pollution liability, property insurance, or contractor bonds may also be appropriate.
Does general liability insurance cover damage caused during paving work?
General liability insurance may respond to covered third-party bodily injury or property damage claims arising from paving operations. Coverage depends on the circumstances of the loss, policy terms, exclusions, endorsements, and whether the claim involves ongoing or completed work.
Do paving contractors need commercial auto insurance?
Paving companies that own or use work trucks, dump trucks, service vehicles, or other business vehicles commonly need commercial auto insurance. The appropriate coverage depends on vehicle ownership, use, drivers, operating radius, and the type of work performed.
Are pavers, rollers, skid steers, and compactors covered by general liability insurance?
Generally, general liability insurance is not designed to insure physical damage to your own equipment. Pavers, rollers, compactors, skid steers, and other mobile equipment may require inland marine, equipment floater, or other specialized coverage.
Can paving equipment be insured while moving between jobsites?
Equipment may be insurable while stored, transported, or used at different jobsites through properly structured inland marine or equipment coverage. Policy terms vary, so contractors should review transit, storage, theft, and off-site coverage carefully.
Do paving contractors need pollution liability insurance?
Some paving and asphalt operations may have pollution exposures involving fuel, oils, chemicals, runoff, spills, or jobsite conditions. General liability policies may contain important pollution exclusions, making separate pollution coverage worth evaluating for certain operations.
What bonds might a paving contractor need?
Depending on licensing rules and project requirements, a paving contractor may need a contractor license bond, permit bond, bid bond, performance bond, payment bond, or another form of surety bond. Requirements vary by state, municipality, project owner, and contract.
Can JC Family Insurance help paving contractors in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho?
Yes. JC Family Insurance works with contractors across Washington, Oregon, and Idaho and can help evaluate insurance and surety options based on the contractor’s operations, vehicles, equipment, employees, projects, and coverage requirements.
