What Happens if You Don't Have Builder's Risk Insurance on Your Construction Project?

The consequences of skipping builder's risk insurance on your construction project.

BlackArrow Insurance

Insurance Advisory · Eastern North Carolina

Construction projects involve significant financial investment, and skipping builder's risk insurance can have severe consequences.

Financial Exposure

Without builder's risk insurance, any damage to your construction project comes directly out of your pocket. Fire, storms, theft, and vandalism are all common on construction sites.

Potential Consequences

  • Project delays — Damage without insurance means funding repairs from your own resources, often causing significant delays
  • Cost overruns — Unexpected repair costs can blow your budget
  • Lender requirements — Most construction lenders require builder's risk coverage
  • Contractor disputes — Without insurance, disputes about who pays for damage can derail relationships

Builder's risk insurance premiums are a small fraction of your total project cost. Contact BlackArrow to get protected.
