How the coverage connects to the operation
Contractor submissions are driven by project type, annual receipts, payroll, subcontracted cost, contract terms, work at height, equipment, vehicles, and loss history. The description should separate self-performed work from subcontracted work.
For this coverage conversation, describe what the business does, where it works, who performs the work, what property or vehicles are involved, and which contracts or customers create insurance requirements. Those facts are more useful than relying on a business title alone.
New Hampshire context
Snow, ice, freeze, severe storms, older buildings, wooded properties, and interstate operations can affect business risk planning.
Geography and state oversight are part of the review, but they do not replace account-specific underwriting. Policy forms and availability can differ by insurer and state.
Questions to discuss
- Which trades are self-performed and which are subcontracted?
- How are subcontractors qualified and insured?

Details to prepare
- Revenue, payroll, subcontracted cost, and project-type breakdown
- Largest current and completed projects
- Vehicle, equipment, and driver schedules
