Others want just the information we need to make a decision. We have broken down each
specific trade contractor's typical contractor insurance policy forms as well as giving you an
indication as to what contractor insurance rates a specialized trade contractor like you would pay.

Contractor Insurance Is Different
Other insurance agents may well tell you that insuring contractors is just like insuring
anything else. This same thinking would suggest that you can go to your family
doctor to have heart surgery done. I am not suggesting that insuring contractors is as difficult as
coronary bypass surgery - just that, because I can swing a hammer, I am definitely not a
carpenter. It's the same with insurance agents.
At Friedlander Associates , we are New Jersey contractor insurance experts and specialists.
We provide you with insider expert advice. This is real life from the trenches
guidance. Each uncovered claim that is discussed on this website are real life scenarios that crushed
good artisan contractors and put them out of business.
The Reason?
A Generalist Agent Wasn't A Contractors Insurance Expert
One policy form, one policy exclusion, can literally make the difference for you between sleeping like
a baby and being thrown into a world of you wouldn't wish upon your worst enemy.
Central to the idea of our being the best contractor's insurance agency in Northern Jersey
is that our knowledge not only allows us to properly protect you but also save you money in the process.

to literally save you thousands of dollars across your contractor's insurance portfolio. Again, without
beating a dead horse - the reason other agents don't tell you about it - they don't know it. It's not
that they are bad people, they are just not contractor insurance specialists.
What Contractors Insurance Is and Isn't
Contractors insurance is not sexy, it is not filled with laughs. I doubt supermodels spend their time
at parties discussing changes in general liability. But one thing that contractors insurance is - it
is vital.
These policies in an absolute sense can make or break you. The nature of your business is dangerous,
people get hurt, property gets damaged.You simply can't rely on the advice of someone who doesn't
deal with construction insurance all day every day.
