Insurance for California Roofing contractors

Height, roof type, materials, and the way your crew works can determine which markets will consider a roofing business.

Roof systems, height, and installation methods

Describe reroofing and new construction separately. Include residential and commercial work, roof systems, maximum height, and pitch.

Disclose torch-applied materials, hot work, waterproofing, and subcontracted installation. Include the way open roofs are protected during the project.

Roofing exclusions and coverage restrictions

  • Roofing and water-intrusion exclusions.
  • Height limits and hot-work conditions.
  • Completed operations.
  • Payroll duties, ownership elections and licensing requirements.

Roofing liability and crew coverage

An open roof, a roof penetration, or hot work can create a claim involving water or fire damage. Check roofing, water-intrusion, height, and hot-work restrictions against your methods and the buildings you work on.

Workers’ compensation should reflect field duties and payroll. Separately review trucks, trailers, tools, and rented lifts; liability coverage does not replace insurance for your own equipment.
