North Dakota Roofing Contractors Insurance
Jack is a great roofer. He takes his time on every roofing job. He understands the importance we place on having a watertight roof over our heads. Jack had finished the roofing work on a client’s remodeling project. Everything looked great as usual. The client was thrilled, and Jack got paid for a job well done, so he was merry, and business continued. About six months later, Jack received an alarming call from his client. The client is stating that his roof was leaking. It caused damage to the inside of his home. Some ceilings and sheetrock were damaged. Jack’s client demanded that the roof be fixed, and the damages repaired. Jack, being a good businessman, went on the rooftop to investigate. Sure enough, the storm from a few days earlier damaged some shingle allowing water to come in. Jack advised the customer he had wind damage and to report it to his homeowner insurance company. Jack did not need to use his Roofing Contractors Insurance policy. Had this been improper installation. His roofing insurance company would have paid for the damages to the inside of the home.
A roofer’s job is never done. Even upon completing a specific job, there will always be plenty more work to do. Sure, the shingles have been nailed. Everything is sealed up. Everything looks great! But the liability that comes with this job keeps going, even after completed. Roofing Insurance policies cover the jobs a roofer is currently working on. As well as protecting those completed jobs. This allows a roofer to focus on the tasks at hand. It is letting them forget about potential liabilities down the road.

Roofers have more general insurance needs. Protect these with a Roofing Insurance policy as well. Those needs include but are not limited to:
- Commercial General Liability Insurance: Commercial general liability insurance offers coverage for third-party claims. Claims for bodily injury, property damage, advertising injury, and other losses.
- Commercial Property Insurance: Commercial property insurance offers coverage for your business’s building. Along with the equipment, supplies, inventory, and other business property housed within it. This coverage protects against the damages or losses caused by a break-in—also, acts of vandalism, fire, extreme weather event, and so on.
- Commercial Auto Insurance: Commercial auto insurance offers protection for company vehicles. Also, the employees that operate them. This policy offers bodily injury liability, property damage liability, and medical payments coverages. This policy can also extend coverage to personal vehicles. Vehicles your employees operate for commercial purposes. But please beware that personal auto policies can exclude autos used in business. We are talking about autos carrying tools and materials.
- Workers Compensation Insurance: Workers’ compensation insurance is required if you have employees. This type of insurance offers coverage for injured employees or those who become ill while on the job. You should never pay a medical bill out of pocket. This would result in the insurance company having no defense. No defense in turning down or disputing the claim.
- Surety Bonds: A surety bond is like a loan from a bank. I must be repaid paid back. They are client guarantees that your business can fulfill the terms of the job. But it also protects your clients against any liability or malpractice issues. Issues that might arise because of your work.
