Sloan Mason Insurance Services, Inc. now offers access to a new facility with multiple "A"-rated carriers to place General Liability, Pollution, Professional, Auto and Umbrella programs for Refinery, Chemical Plant & Power Generation Facility Contractors Insurance. This program is designed for contractors who perform inspection, installation, repair and related specialty services at heavy industrial sites.

Welding and process piping

Machinery inspection, installation and repair
Millwright work
Field machining
Turbine inspection, installation and repair
Compressor and pump inspection, installation and repair
Coverage highlights and program advantages
Multi-line solutions: placement options for GL, Pollution, Professional (E&O), Auto and Umbrella to provide coordinated coverage for complex industrial exposures.
Access to several "A"-rated carriers through Sloan Mason’s wholesale broker facility, increasing chances of placement on difficult accounts.
Underwriting tailored to specialty contractors working at operational heavy industrial sites—focus on controlled-site exposures, contractual liability, and pollution management.

Appetite and common declinations
Well suited: experienced specialty contractors and inspection/installation teams working under formal site safety and environmental controls, with documented safety programs and stable loss history.
Typically not a fit: contractors with uncontrolled or unresolved pollution exposures, contractors primarily performing large turnkey construction where the insured assumes general contractor responsibilities without adequate controls, or accounts with recent frequent large losses—such business may be referred for alternative market placement.
