How it works

From form to covered โ€” fast.

01

Tell us what you build

Framing, trim, cabinetry, decks, or a mix of it all โ€” a couple minutes of questions built around your actual jobs.

02

We shop it across carriers

Licensed agents build your quote and shop it across multiple carriers โ€” typically back the same business day.*

03

Bind between jobs

Review the coverage and enroll whenever it works for you โ€” no waiting around, no site visit required.

04

COI before your next job starts

Once you bind, your certificate of insurance is issued instantly โ€” ready for the GC or client before your crew is back on site.

*Quote turnaround is typical during normal business hours and may vary. Coverage, same-day availability, and eligibility are subject to carrier underwriting and approval.

"You spend the afternoon shimming a header until it's dead level and cutting a seam so tight nobody will ever find it. Your coverage should be built to that same standard โ€” no gaps, no guesswork."

Coverages

Coverage tailored to how carpenters operate.

Plain-English protection, matched to your real exposures.

General Liability

The foundation. Responds to third-party bodily injury and property damage โ€” a client's flooring is scratched during a built-in install, materials staged in a driveway cause a trip-and-fall, or you accidentally damage a wall or fixture.

Tools & Equipment

Inland marine coverage protects your table saws, miter saws, nail guns, routers, and compressors โ€” whether on the job site, locked in the truck, or in transit. Standard property policies don't follow tools that travel.

Installation Floater

Purpose-built for carpentry: covers custom cabinetry, millwork, and building materials from the shop or supplier to the job site and until installation is complete โ€” before they become part of the structure.

Commercial Auto

The truck or trailer hauling lumber, saws, and crew to the job. Personal auto policies often exclude business use โ€” we'll help you review whether you need commercial coverage.

Workers Compensation

Required in most states once you have employees. Framing and structural work carries real physical risk โ€” this covers medical costs and lost wages if a crew member is hurt on the job.

Additional Insured

Blanket additional insured and waiver of subrogation endorsements โ€” the coverage language most GCs, property managers, and commercial clients require before you start work.

Coverage descriptions are general summaries. Actual coverage is governed by the policy issued and is subject to underwriting, terms, and carrier availability.

Who we insure

If you frame it, trim it, or build it โ€” you fit here.

Wondering about price?

Many carpenters pay roughly $500โ€“$1,600 a year for core coverage.

Your premium depends on revenue, the type of carpentry you do, number of employees or subs, tools and equipment value, and the states you operate in. See what drives the number โ€” and what you'd likely pay.
