Roofing Contractors Insurance

Working in the construction industry carries inherent risks, and roofing contractors face some of the highest exposure. From working at elevated heights to handling heavy equipment and hazardous materials, roofers are considered high-risk by most insurance standards. A well-structured insurance policy is essential for mitigating these risks and protecting both the contractor and their business.

Roofing Contractors Insurance Program from Chenango Brokers

Chenango Brokers, LLC offers a comprehensive Roofing Contractors Insurance program designed specifically for agents and brokers looking to place roofing-related risks. As a leading wholesale broker, Chenango simplifies the process with minimal supplemental applications and a fast, efficient binding process—ideal for busy contractors and the agents who serve them. We understand that roofing contractors need specialized coverage that addresses their unique exposures. Our program is built to meet those demands while also aligning with the requirements of local markets in selected states.

• Asphalt shingle installation
• Metal roofing systems
• Flat and low-slope roofing
• Gutter installation and repair
Accounts with a solid safety record, proper use of fall protection, and a history of compliance with OSHA standards are preferred. We can also consider risks with subcontractor exposure, provided proper controls are in place.
