Know About Construction Insurance

Financial expenditure is protected by construction insurance at the time of constructing phase of a home or a building. Developing structure is protected by construction insurance and it protects the materials which are purchased for the structure from loss due to damage or theft. Every insured wants to get more coverage with low costs.

A loss can be covered by this insurance and this loss from damage may be caused by fire, high winds or other factors. You have to purchase this insurance before starting the building process. Copy of the home building contract can be asked by insurance company before issuing the policy. The typical projects of construction can be a school, an apartment building or an office building.


This insurance policies can be forced for the period of one year or till time of the completion of the home or building, which ever comes first, that will be considered. If the completion period of the building is less than one year then, home owner may roll the remaining premium in to a regular homeowner's policy or he can request the insurance company to refund.


The total money of the structure will not be covered by this insurance, it covers the money that is spent to the point of the damage. Suppose if the homeowner started construction of the $100000 value building, then, if it gets destroyed after spending $60000, then this insurance company will pay only $60000 amount of money.


Any damage under home construction, home homeowner's may think that contractor is liable for that damage, but it is only true when the damage occurs because of the negligence of the contractor or his workers. Coverage for damage which is caused by home owner is excluded by the insurance policy coverage.
