Common questions

Short answers to what builders ask us most.

What value should I enter?

The value of the remodel work itself: materials, labor, profit and overhead. If the existing home also needs coverage, tell us its value on the first step.

Can the owners live in the home during the work?

Yes. Many remodels happen in occupied homes. We note it for the carrier; it doesn't stop your quote.

Does the homeowner's policy cover a remodel?

Often not fully. Many homeowner's policies limit or exclude construction materials and work in progress. Builders risk fills that gap.

What about additions?

Additions are quoted the same way. Structural and whole-house renovations get a quick specialist review before binding.
