California Contractors Insurance

California contractors carry more compliance overhead than almost any other state — an active CSLB license, a $25,000 contractor's license bond under B&P Code §7071.6, and (for most jobs) a certificate of insurance a general contractor's risk manager will actually accept without kickback.

Why Contractors Choose Us for California Contractors Insurance

California contractors carry more compliance overhead than almost any other state — an active CSLB license, a $25,000 contractor's license bond under B&P Code §7071.6, and (for most jobs) a certificate of insurance a general contractor's risk manager will actually accept without kickback. We build California contractor insurance programs around that reality: general liability written on an occurrence form (ISO CG 00 01) with additional insured endorsements (CG 20 10 and CG 20 37) already anticipated, workers' compensation priced against your real Experience Modification Rate rather than a worst-case assumption, and a broker who has actually read the subcontract language you're being asked to sign. A framing crew, a solar installer, and a demolition contractor are not the same risk, and a generalist agent pricing all three off the same template is how contractors end up underinsured on the one claim that actually happens.
