Online quote and bind platform for routine builders risk placements with fast turnaround.
Limitations to Know
Where They Fall Short
Builders risk only. No coverage for completed operations, primary commercial property, or general liability beyond the builders risk policy.
Project duration limits typical to 12 months with extension options for longer projects.
Coverage gaps between builders risk policy expiration and the permanent property policy effective date require careful coordination; a lapse between the two creates an uninsured window that most project owners overlook
Right Fit
Who They Are Best For
Best Fit For
Contractors, developers, and property owners needing builders risk insurance during new construction or major renovation projects, both residential and commercial.
Not a Good Fit For
Completed buildings or business operations without active construction. Once a project is finished, the standing structure usually moves to a commercial property insurance policy instead. US Assure is a builders risk specialty carrier, not a general commercial lines insurer.

Claims Experience
Specialty builders risk claims handling with adjusters experienced in construction-phase losses including theft, vandalism, water damage from construction, weather, and fire. Each of these is a covered peril under a course-of-construction policy. Their claims process is purpose-built for construction project losses, so an adjuster handling your claim understands how a job site differs from a finished building.
