Builders Risk News Roundup: February 2022
For this month's edition of our Product News Roundup, check out the three remodeling topics we’re featuring to help you sell and service construction clients with confidence.
- New Construction vs. Remodeling
New construction is defined as construction from the ground up. Projects are considered remodeling when there is already a completed structure in place.
More Details > - Insuring Existing Structures
The existing structure and remodeling work can both be insured on our builders risk policy, in many cases. Zurich values the existing structure at actual cash value; renovations are valued at replacement cost.
Product Info > - Policy Extensions
Remodeling policy options include six, nine or 12-month terms. Coverage can be extended with underwriter approval. Submit your request to buildersriskrequests@usassure.com prior to the policy expiration date for consideration.
