Since 1985, Norman-Spencer Agency, Inc. has specialized in coverages for the steel construction trades. This program addresses the routine and catastrophic liability exposures these firms face, and is structured to give agents flexible placement options across admitted and non-admitted markets.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
This program is appropriate for a broad range of steel contractors, including:

Underwriting Notes
The AllSteel™ program is offered through both admitted and non-admitted markets to give you placement flexibility. Underwriters evaluate each submission on scope of work, jobsite controls, safety practices, and loss history. Typical considerations include project size, working at heights exposures, welding hot-work procedures, and use of subcontractors.
Umbrella coverage is intended to provide excess limits over primary liability policies. Available terms and attachment points vary by carrier and account profile — discuss options with Norman-Spencer’s underwriting team for cases that require higher or specialized limits.
Example Accounts That Fit
- A regional steel fabricator supplying structural steel and performing onsite erection for commercial buildings with a strong safety program and few prior losses.
- A mid-size erection contractor that performs bridge work, uses certified riggers, and needs excess limits to respond to larger third-party liability exposures.

The AllSteel™ program is available nationwide, including all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Norman-Spencer places business in both admitted and surplus lines markets, depending on the client’s needs and regulatory requirements.
