Boat Insurance
Getting out on the water should be carefree, but owning and running a boat brings several financial risks. Like motor vehicles, boats and other watercraft are prone to accidents, theft, breakdowns, property damage, and liability issues. Watercraft insurance means you can stop worrying about those risks and get back to relaxing on your boat.
Inland Marine Insurance
Don’t be fooled by the name. Inland marine insurance has nothing to do with lakes and rivers. Instead, it helps cover the risks relating to property and equipment that’s either in transit (including by road or rail) or being stored by a third party. This is essential for businesses that rely on the property that is in transit, as the loss of that property could be devastating to your business financially without this coverage.
Most homeowners insurance or renters insurance policies have a limit on how much they will pay for any single item. While this is fine for most possessions, it can mean you won’t get the full amount for expensive items such as jewelry or artwork. That’s where valuable possessions insurance comes in.

Your home is the center of your life. It’s also your biggest investment. That’s where home insurance comes in, covering the unique risks you face. We’ll help you find a policy that protects you from the small and large risks related to owning a home. Because it’s more than just a house, it’s your home.
When employees are worried about their financial situation, they may not be as productive. Many individuals today do not have life insurance or adequate savings to cover final expenses, which places additional stress on employees and/or their families when the need arises.
Health Insurance
Some employees may prefer a nice bonus, but in most cases, employees see health care as a core part of the compensation package—arguably as important as the salary itself. Buying group health insurance is an economical way for your business to recruit and retain staff while increasing the likelihood that they’ll be fit to work.
Disability Insurance
While employees can take out personal disability insurance themselves, businesses that pay for a plan as part of their employee benefits package often find that it is a great way to recruit staff and make them feel valued. Disability insurance pays out to an employee of your business who is unable to work because of illness or injury. Typically, the payout is equal to 60 percent of their typical salary and is often paid as tax-free income.
Dental Insurance
The National Association of Dental Plans and the Centers for Disease Control have performed studies that show that employees with dental insurance plans have better attitudes and are less likely to suffer from depression, as well.

Commercial Property Insurance
A commercial property insurance policy may help protect against the cost of replacing lost or damaged property. Additionally, insurance may cover any associated losses—such as lost income—that are caused because part or all of your business is temporarily unable to operate.
Workers Compensation Insurance
Workers' compensation protects your employees should a job-related injury or sickness occur during the course of employment. This coverage is required by law and may vary by area, so be sure that you understand your obligations for all physical locations where your business operates in and all physical locations where you hire your employees.
Commercial Liability Insurance
A business owners insurance policy, or BOP, combines business property and business liability insurance into one convenient policy. Your business faces a variety of risks unique to your industry, but there are certain coverages that businesses need regardless of their size or business type. Having a BOP helps you safeguard your business by helping to protect what you’ve built.
Professional Liability Insurance
Lawsuits can happen to anyone, and the damages can be hefty whether you win or lose. Even if you’ve done nothing wrong, you’ll need to defend yourself. So regardless of whether a contract requires it, without professional liability coverage, you could be putting your business’ future at risk.
Builders Risk Insurance
Builders risk and installation insurance provides coverage for homes or buildings while undergoing construction, until they are completed. The policy covers the contractors’ interest in materials at the job site before they are installed, construction materials in transit designated for the contractors' equipment insurance–a policy specially and the value of the property being constructed until it is completed.
As part of your contractor insurance policy, general liability insurance may cover you against claims of damage or injury caused on-site or to visitors on your premises. Such costs can be immense, and general liability insurance is often mandatory if you want to bid for government contracts.
