What Electricians Face

The risks that come with the trade.

  • Completed-work claims

    A problem with a panel or circuit can show up well after the job is signed off, when you're nowhere near the site.

  • Fire exposure

    Faulty wiring is a leading cause of structure fires, and that puts a target on electrical work when a claim gets filed.

  • Shock and arc-flash injury

    Live circuits mean a real chance of injury to you or an apprentice on any given day.

  • Client property

    Drilling, fishing wire, and cutting drywall all create chances to damage a finished space.

Coverage That Fits

Real scenarios, real coverage.

  • General Liability

    For exampleA week after a panel upgrade, the homeowner reports scorching at an outlet you tied in. General liability responds to the property-damage claim.

  • Workers' Compensation

    For exampleAn apprentice takes an arc-flash burn working a circuit that was still hot. Workers' comp covers the treatment and the time off.

  • Business Owner's Policy (BOP)

    For exampleYour drill goes through a client's water line inside a wall and soaks the room. A BOP covers the third-party damage and your gear together.

Backed By A Local Agent

Online speed, with a real agent behind it.

You quote and buy online in minutes, but David Bartal, a licensed local agent, is a phone call away for certificates, changes, and claims. That's the part the national-only sites can't give you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Electricians ask us this.

Does this cover work I finished on an earlier job?
General liability generally includes completed-operations coverage, which is what responds when a claim ties back to work you already finished. Keep your policy active and continuous so there's no gap between jobs.
Can I add a general contractor as an additional insured?
Many GCs require it. That's a common request we can walk through so your certificate lists the right parties and satisfies the contract.
Do I need workers' comp if it's just me?
Sole proprietors sometimes have options, but many GCs still require a workers' comp certificate before you set foot on site. Enter your state during quoting and we can confirm what your contracts will actually ask for.
How fast can I get a certificate for a job starting tomorrow?
You can quote and buy online in minutes and download your certificate immediately. Most electricians are covered and holding a certificate the same day.
