How am I Protected?

Contractors’ inland marine insurance will provide businesses essential coverage for lost or damaged items, including material and supplies from installation exposures.

The policy provides coverage on an all-risk or named perils basis, with some perils generally excluded:

• Normal wear and tear to covered property
• Damage due to a weakness intrinsic to the property
• Insect or vermin damage
• War or civil commotion
• Delay, loss of market, loss of use

Each carrier’s underwriting guidelines may vary depending on the property type and value. Generally, more valuable items are listed individually on a schedule, whereas less valuable items are insured collectively with blanket coverage.
