Type of Insurance Needed to Protect a Craft Brewery

Why Every Business Needs Disability Coverage

As a business, your employees are your number one priority. As your number one priority, you need to assure them that they will be taken care of if they suddenly require extra assistance to be able to perform their jobs.

Equipping your business with the right Disability Coverage policy can provide exactly this kind of assurance.

How Does Disability Coverage Work?

If an employee gets injured, becomes sick, or suffers some form of general disability that hinders their job performance, Disability Coverage works to get that employee the help he or she needs to be able to continue doing his or her job. Or, if that employee can’t return to work, Disability Coverage can make sure they’re covered even when they can’t work, such as with Workers Compensation.

Disabilities don’t always result from just physical injury in the workplace.

Without Disability Coverage, it can be you or your business that has to pay out of pocket to help that employee. Many businesses are more than happy to support their employees this way, but it can nevertheless pack on a substantial financial burden that some businesses, especially newer ones, aren’t able to sustain long-term.

Therefore, the best way to support your employees is to offer Disability Coverage. This way, even if an employee can’t return to work after an accident, they can rely on their Disability Coverage to provide a large portion of their income (usually 50-70 percent) and maintain their standard of living until they get back on their feet

How Do You Get Disability Coverage?

Getting the right Disability Coverage for your business requires working with an insurance company that is familiar with your industry, your type of business, and the needs of your specific employees.

This is why getting coverage from Prince Insurance Group is a great choice. With over four decades of experience working with all kinds of different businesses, we can quickly provide you with a tailor-made policy perfect for your business and employee needs.

Why You Need Builders Risk Protection

After finally seeing your new home, office, or general property fully constructed, it’s a natural impulse to want to protect it from the elements with insurance – you don’t want something as simple as a flash flood to ruin what you’ve waited so long for.

But what about insurance for your property during its construction, as well?

Construction Risks and the Importance of Builders Risk Insurance

Although people tend to neglect insurance for their property during its construction, the reality is that properties are often more susceptible to damage during construction.

For example, a lack of complete coverings and security features makes properties being constructed much more susceptible to weather damage from wind, hail, or rain, as well as theft and vandalism.

This is why if you want to increase the chances of your property coming out exactly the way you imagined and save money in repair, replacement, and labor costs along the way, protecting it during construction with a Builders Risk policy is a very smart move.

Given the in-progress nature of structures around construction sites, they’re much more susceptible to potentially dangerous elements like weather.

This type of policy can provide the following types of coverage:

  • Structural Coverage: Protects the buildings and other structures associated with the project.
  • General Liability: Protects the at-risk people working on the project.
  • Equipment & Materials Coverage: Protects the equipment and materials being used for construction.

Of course, these are simply the most common forms of coverage that go into most builders risk policies; what ultimately ends up being covered in your policy will depend on the needs and features of your specific project.

In some cases, you may need more comprehensive coverage, such as that found in contractor insurance or construction insurance.

Who Should Get Builders Risk Insurance?

Because of how many moving parts are typically involved in a construction project, it’s very normal for more than one name to be on a Builders Risk policy.

For example, while it’s most common for Builders Risk insurance to be taken out by those funding or managing construction, it’s also just as common for landowners, architects, engineers, and any other specialized professionals involved with the project to sign their names as well.

Getting Set Up with the Right Coverage

There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all Builders Risk policy. That is why it’s so important to prioritize working with insurance companies that understand not just how to protect construction properties, but that have enough expertise to be able to provide a tailor-made solution to your specific coverage needs.

Fortunately, these are exactly the types of policies that Prince Insurance Group can help you with.

To learn more about getting the perfect Builders Risk policy from professionals you can trust, contact Prince Insurance Group today.

How to bundle

You can lump your insurance into a single policy by getting all your coverage from the same agency. This means that you go to the same brokerage firm for your home, auto, business, and other types of liability coverage. Ask the agents about a combined policy that’s specific to your needs or your industry. They will assemble a competitive package customized to your family and your business. It’s as simple as that! Bundling insurance policies is a good way to get a better price and stay organized by keeping your payments with a single company.

Popular combinations and their benefits

They can offer you a reduction of up to 25% off your premium when you get your coverage through a single brokerage.

Best Coverage Plans for Brokers

As a broker, you spend all day trying to make other people’s lives better, but you also need to make sure that you are protected. It’s important to cover yourself, your family, and your business with robust policies. Depending on the type of business you run, you should consider lumping your policies into one plan. If you’re responsible for a team of employees, then you need to make sure they’re covered, too. Finally, remember to include your office space! Here’s how to understand the right insurance policies for brokers.

Doing business comes with risks, but you can protect yourself with insurance policies for brokers.

Popular plans for insurance brokers 

Most brokers, due to their line of work, understand the importance of covering their own liability. This means personal, property, auto, and home. But there are also important policies that can cover your business and the people in it. These include professional liability insurance, workers compensation, and commercial general liability. When selecting insurance policies for brokers, it’s generally best to bundle your policies into a business owners policy (BOP). 

Understanding your field and knowing your customers

To be successful in business, you need to stay connected with your customers. Many brokers specialize in a particular field or industry. This increases the chances that you’ll be seen as an expert in that field. Once you do this, you can study the ins and outs of that industry. Knowing the field and knowing your customers is the key to success! It allows you to customize your offerings depending on your customers’ needs. It’s okay to tell your customers that you don’t specialize in a certain type of coverage. You can’t be all things to all people, after all. This can even build trust with your customers, showing them that you have no problem admitting what you don’t know.

Liability Policies for Homeowners

But it’s equally important to protect you, the homeowner, against future liability for events that occur on your property. Homeowners liability helps cover you when something happens at your home. If someone slips and falls, they could sue and seek compensation. They could argue that bad lighting or dangerous conditions inside the home contributed to their injury. This type of coverage helps protect you and your family from outsized bills if someone happens to be injured while in your home.

Make sure you’re protected from liability claims if someone gets injured on your property.

Popular plans

There are a variety of coverage levels when it comes to homeowners liability. You can access policies that protect you against claims for property damage. You could get protection against claims for injury to others. Your policy can protect you against having to pay out medical fees for the care of someone who was injured on your property. Most importantly, you should ensure that your policy covers liability defense costs. If you need to hire a lawyer to go to court and defend you, the insurance company could cover that cost if you have homeowners liability protection.

Understanding coverages

For a comprehensive home protection plan, you should also look into flood and fire insurance. This type of property insurance can protect you from acts of God as well as human acts of violence. It will cover the cost to repair your home if something happens. There is also home-sharing coverage and scheduled personal property insurance. It’s okay if you don’t know which policies are right for you. What’s most important is that you speak with someone who can help you make sure you’re covered in the right ways.
