ADDITIONAL OPTIONAL INSURANCE POLICIES WE OFFER

Hired & Non-Owned Auto Liability (HNOA)

Additional Insured / Waiver of Subrogation (Contract Requirements)

Many contracts require your clients or partners to be added as Additional Insureds or to waive subrogation rights. This coverage ensures compliance, reduces exposure, and strengthens your ability to secure and maintain contracts.

This policy language clarifies that your coverage takes precedence and does not rely on the other party’s insurance. It protects your business from coverage disputes and helps meet strict contract requirements.

Builders Risk (Project-Based)

Covers construction projects, materials, and temporary structures against fire, theft, vandalism, and weather-related damage. Builders Risk insurance safeguards your investment from groundbreaking to completion.

Business Income / Extra ExpENSE

Helps replace lost income and covers additional operational expenses if your business is temporarily disrupted by a covered loss. This coverage keeps your operations running and helps maintain client commitments during downtime.

Why Utility Company Insurance Is Essential

Utility companies operate in high-risk environments with strict regulatory oversight. Without proper coverage, a single incident can result in significant financial loss. Common exposures include:


  • Workplace injuries involving heavy equipment and hazardous environments
  • Vehicle accidents involving utility fleets
  • Environmental contamination or pollution events
  • Damage to public or private infrastructure
  • Cyberattacks targeting billing systems and customer data
  • Contractual insurance and bonding requirements


Proper insurance protects your operations, ensures regulatory compliance, and strengthens your ability to secure and maintain contracts.

What Utility Company Insurance Does Not Cover

Understanding exclusions helps avoid costly gaps in coverage:


  • Intentional acts or criminal behavior
  • Auto accidents without commercial auto coverage
  • Pollution events not covered under environmental liability
  • Professional services outside the scope of E&O policies
  • Cyber incidents without cyber liability insurance


We structure comprehensive insurance programs that close gaps and align with the real-world risks utility companies face.


Why Utility Company Insurance Is Often Set Up Incorrectly

Many utility companies encounter issues because:

1.

Policies don’t reflect the full scope of operations

2.

Fleet and mobile equipment are underinsured

3.

Environmental and pollution exposures are overlooked

4.

Liability limits don’t meet contract or municipal requirements

5.

Cyber and employment risks are ignored
