Risk Advisory

Key Exposures We Address

Builders Risk operations carry distinct risks that require specialized coverage strategies. Our team identifies and mitigates the exposures most likely to impact your business.

01
Fire During Construction
Active construction sites are highly susceptible to fire from hot work, temporary heating, and combustible materials — often the largest single builders risk exposure.
02
Weather & Wind Damage
Partially completed structures are vulnerable to wind, rain, and storm damage that can set a project back significantly.
03
Theft of Materials
Building materials staged on job sites — copper, HVAC equipment, appliances — are frequent targets for theft.
04
Vandalism & Malicious Damage
Unoccupied construction sites are vulnerable to vandalism and malicious damage, particularly in urban environments.
05
Collapse During Construction
Structural failures during construction can result in catastrophic losses to the project and significant third-party liability.
06
Delay & Soft Cost Exposure
A covered loss that delays project completion can result in significant soft cost and lost revenue exposure beyond the hard cost of the physical damage.
