Builders Risk Insurance is an insurance policy specifically designed for a building under construction. These require a special form which covers the unique loss exposures of bui
aka: Builder’s Risk Insurance Policy, Contractors Risk Insurance Policy, or Construction Insurance Policy.
Until it is complete, it is not a building or a House. Therefore it can not be covered under a standard Building Insurance Policy or a Home Insurance Policy. It needs to be insured under a Builders Risk Insurance Policy.
In fact most Building Insurance or Home Insurance Policies will EXCLUDE structures under the course of construction. Insurance Companies can either cancel insurance coverage or deny a claim if it not insured under a Builders Risk Policy.
Typically, Coverage increases automatically as the construction progresses, and is terminated upon completion. Builder’s Risk Insurance should be replaced with permanent insurance once the building is ready for occupancy.
