Temporary structures like scaffolding, trailers, and fencing play an essential role in construction projects. However, their damage or loss can cause costly delays. Builder’s risk insurance can be extended to cover these assets.
What to Cover
- Scaffolding and Temporary Framework:
- Protect structures used to support construction.
- Coverage includes damage from weather, theft, or accidents.
- Construction Trailers:
- Insure on-site trailers used for offices or storage.
- Include contents such as tools and documentation.
- Temporary Fencing and Signage:
- Covers fences or signs erected to secure the construction site or direct traffic.
- Utilities and Equipment:
- Protect temporary wiring, generators, or other site-specific installations.
Ensuring coverage for temporary structures minimizes disruptions and financial losses during construction. Review your builder’s risk policy to confirm these assets are included.
