Successful Starts: Building Boom Highlights Need for High Value Coverage

Nov 30, 2021

The business of building, whether commercial construction or professional homebuilding, is a booming segment in today’s economy. Pent-up, post-pandemic demand; a nationwide housing shortage; a more relaxed financing market; and a forthcoming infusion of government infrastructure spending paint a rosy picture for the foreseeable future.

For general contractors and homebuilders, these elements present significant degrees of opportunity. With opportunity, though, comes risk. Few businesses are as unpredictable or as risky to orchestrate as a construction site. Delays due to injury, theft or damage can make or break an otherwise successful project. Like any well-built structure, careful prior planning is essential for success. Risk management and a proactive protection stance are two of the best ways to ensure a project’s profitability.

As you start planning, consider the following before breaking ground:
