Coverage typically includes:

  • Buildings Under ConstructionCovers damage to the physical structure as it’s being built.

  • Construction Materials and EquipmentIncludes materials on-site, in storage, or in transit.

  • Temporary StructuresProtection for scaffolding, fencing, and site signage.

  • Weather-Related DamageCoverage for wind, lightning, hail, and similar events.

I worked with Hunter and Adam on getting health insurance last minute. I was unaware I’d lose coverage when I turned 26 and was desperate for help. They made the process simple for me and I had no gap in coverage. I look forward to working with them in the future for my other insurance needs.

Paulo is so very helpful with everything we have needed so far. He even had to re-route our policy from an old address and did that without a problem. Very smooth transition from our former agency. Thank you Paulo!

I was looking for both flood and homeowner's insurance for my first home with my fiance, and a client connected me with Michael Segreve. I worked with Michael Brandolini to get both homeowner's insurance and and flood insurance, as well as a new auto policy. Michael was extremely helpful and prompt, and a great communicator. I strongly recommend Segreve and Hall, specifically Michael Brandolini for insurance needs!

What I expected to be a confusing and overwhelming experience turned out to be simple and straightforward, thanks to Hunter and the Segrave & Hall Team. I’m so grateful for their support and highly recommend their services!

I recently switched over all my insurance with Segreve, both personal and corporate. They have been nothing but amazing! Whenever I need something I get a response within minutes and requested documents within 30 minutes or at the latest same day. I have worked with other agencies in the past and they are hands down the best! The whole team and family are very friendly, hard working, great attention to detail and professional. I would highly recommend to anyone!

1 year review. I'm a high maintenance situation because I have 5 vehicles, 5 trailers, commercial plates, residential plates, snowmobiles, and General liability insurance for my business. All 1 stop shopping from Seagrave & Hall Insurance. Switching company's and policy's was easy. Their communication is great and they even saved me money with an end result of better coverage!!! When I buy a house I will be using them for that also.

Frequently asked questions

Who should be listed as the insured on a Builder’s Risk policy?

Typically, the property owner or developer is the named insured, but contractors or lenders can also be included. We help structure your policy to match project ownership and contract requirements.

Does Builder’s Risk Insurance cover subcontractors?

No. Subcontractors should carry their own liability and equipment coverage. Builder’s Risk covers the project structure and materials but not liability for subcontractor mistakes or injuries.

What happens if the project takes longer than expected?

Builder’s Risk policies can often be extended with approval from the carrier. It’s important to notify us in advance if your project timeline changes so we can adjust the policy accordingly.
