Comprehensive Carpentry General Liability Coverage Through Continental Risk Continental Risk, in partnership with Continental Marine Insurance Services, offers a robust General Liability program designed specifically for carpentry operations. Backed by an A-rated carrier, this program is ideal for agents and brokers seeking reliable markets for their contractor clients engaged in residential or commercial carpentry work—including new residential construction and tract developments. Ideal Accounts and Appetite This program is tailored for a wide range of carpentry risks, including contractors involved in framing, finish carpentry, remodeling, and structural woodwork. Both residential and commercial carpenters are eligible, and the program is open to risks involved in new construction and tract housing projects—often excluded or heavily restricted in standard markets. You might have a client who is a framing subcontractor working on residential developments or a finish carpenter focusing on high-end remodels—both would be strong candidates for this program. Coverage Highlights and Advantages General Liability with 1/2/2 limits and defense costs paid outside the policy limits Blanket Additional Insured (AI) endorsement included New residential construction and tract work accepted Excess Liability coverage available Optional coverage available for Auto and Pollution exposures These features make the program particularly competitive for higher-risk carpentry accounts that may not qualify for standard admitted markets.
