Ask the Right Questions to Get Insurance
Agent/Broker that Meets Your Needs

by David L. Grenier, David Collings, Teresa Haugland


"Because your company's well-being can depend on your insurance coverage if something goes wrong, it's essential that you have the right coverage in place. But buying insurance can be very complicated.

Like most contractors, you probably count on your insurance agent or broker to advise you and to help you customize an insurance program that meets your needs. Otherwise, you may have gaps in your coverage or be paying for insurance that you don't need.

The best way to make sure that you pick an insurance agent or broker who can help you meet your needs is to ask the right questions at the beginning of your selection process. You should focus on the insurance agent/broker's construction industry experience, the services it can provide, and how much you'll have to pay."

This article provides construction professionals with a roadmap to assist with the construction insurance agent or broker selection process.
