Comprehensive Protection

Coverage for Every Trade

Every policy a Colorado contractor needs — from the general liability a GC demands before you step on site to the bonds your city requires to pull a permit.

General Liability

The coverage every Colorado GC and sub requires before you set foot on their jobsite — third-party injury, property damage, and completed-operations claims.

Learn More

Workers' Comp

Required by Colorado law the day you hire your first employee. Covers medical bills and lost wages, and shields you from injury lawsuits.

Learn More

Commercial Auto

The policy that pays when a work truck crashes on the job — because your personal auto insurer will deny the claim the moment it learns the vehicle was used for business.

Learn More

Tools & Equipment

The contractors equipment floater that covers your tools wherever they are — jobsite, truck, transit, or storage. Small tools, scheduled machines, and rented gear.

Learn More

Builders Risk

Property coverage on the structure you are building — hail, wind, snow load, fire, and jobsite theft — until the project is finished and occupied.

Learn More

Contractors E&O

The financial-loss coverage general liability leaves out — mistakes, missed specs, wrong materials, and design errors on design-build work.

Learn More

Surety Bonds

License, bid, performance, and payment bonds that let Colorado contractors pull permits and win public work — not insurance, a guarantee you back.

Learn More

Umbrella & Excess

Extra liability limits stacked on top of your GL, auto, and employers liability — the cheapest way to hit the $2M-$5M a big Colorado contract demands.

Learn More

Pollution Liability

The coverage your general liability policy specifically excludes. CPL pays for contamination, cleanup, and pollution claims arising from your Colorado jobsite work.

New Contractors

The first-policy program for brand-new Colorado trades — general liability, a license bond, and a same-day certificate so you never lose your first job.

The Advantage

Why Colorado Contractors Choose Us

Colorado work is not coastal work. Local licensing, altitude, hail and snow load change the risk — and the right program has to account for all of it.

01

We Speak Colorado Contractor

There is no statewide Colorado general-contractor license — permitting and registration happen city by city, from Denver to Colorado Springs to Grand Junction. We know which certificates and bonds each jurisdiction and GC actually wants, so your packet clears the building department the first time.

02

Built for Front-Range Risk

Hail Alley shreds roofs and fleets, spring snow load tests every truss, and construction-defect litigation is a real Colorado exposure. We build programs that account for the weather and legal climate your crews actually work in — not a generic template written for a coast.

03

One Agent, the Whole Stack

General liability, workers' comp, commercial auto, tools and equipment, builders risk, E&O, bonds, umbrella and pollution — bundled and coordinated so nothing falls through a gap between two policies. One call, one renewal, one certificate you can hand any GC.

Colorado Contractor Insurance FAQ

What contractors ask us every day — costs, workers' comp rules, licensing, and what GCs actually require before you can start.

All 24 Questions

It depends on your trade, payroll, revenue, and which coverages you carry. A solo handyman with general liability alone might pay around $50-$100 a month, while a roofing or framing company with a crew, trucks, and a full stack pays much more once workers' comp payroll is added. Our 2026 cost guide breaks it down by trade.

General liability averages roughly $100 a month for many Colorado trades, with lower-risk work closer to $50 and higher-risk trades like roofing and framing running well above that. Standard limits are $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate. Your class code, revenue, and claims history drive the exact number more than location does.

Workers' comp is priced per $100 of payroll times your class-code rate times your experience modifier, so it scales with your team and your trade. Office and light trades sit on the low end; roofers, framers, and excavators are among the highest-rated class codes. See our workers' comp guide for how the math works.

Yes. Most contractor policies are available with monthly installments, and workers' comp can often be written pay-as-you-go so you pay on actual payroll instead of an upfront estimate. A down payment followed by monthly payments is typical; paying annually usually earns a small discount.

Bundle your policies into one program, make sure your class codes are accurate, raise deductibles where you can absorb the risk, run a documented safety program, keep your claims history clean, and use pay-as-you-go workers' comp. Re-shopping at renewal with a specialist who can access multiple carriers is often the biggest lever.
