Contractors All Risks

Contractors' All Risks (CAR), is a specifically designed insurance product to cover construction projects of buildings, houses and civil engineering.

There are many potential hazards during a construction. A worker carrying heavy objects may shatter a glass or a crane driver may unintentionally knock down trees. These risks can be alleviated with CAR. 

• Material damage during construction
• Damage to property
• Damage to third party and/or bodily arising in connection with contract work

Typically, in a construction project, an exhaustive amount of detail is taken into planning and a profound level of expertise is often required for its completion. For those involved, the biggest fear is is that a disaster such as property damage or injuries could strike, leading to crippling costs. Thus, having adequate coverage cannot be emphasize enough as the right insurance policy can indemnify you against such results, giving you a peace of mind.

Whether you are renovating or starting a new project, CAR can be useful for a number of different industries including:

• Power generation and utilities
• Oil, gas and petrochemicals
• Chemicals and pharmaceuticals
• Manufacturing and process industries
• Residential (home, condominium)
• Commercial (office, hotels, restaurant)
• Government
• Industrial
• Heavy civil works and infrastructure (Roadways, railways, bridges, dams, tunnels, water and wastewater distribution, etc.)

Typically, the sum insured is the most integral component for calculating the premium for CAR. With higher sum insured, the insurer may request additional details such as Bill of Quanitities (BOQ) and contract of agreement of the contractor as these factors can also effect the premium for bigger projects.
