What we insure

Coverage built specifically for roofing repair contractors.

Standard contractor policies miss completed-operations exposure, fail to accommodate storm-season crew surges, and leave tools uninsured off-premises. We build programs designed for working repair and restoration roofers.

Essential coverage

General Liability Insurance

Third-party bodily injury and property damage coverage for roofing repair and re-roofing operations — including the completed-operations tail that covers latent water-intrusion and defect claims arising after a repair job is done.

Explore coverage

Workers' Compensation

High-hazard roofing repair work creates real fall exposure and injury risk for your crews. We place workers' comp with carriers that understand storm-season surges, varying crew sizes, and the injury patterns of repair and restoration roofing.

Explore coverage

Commercial Auto Insurance

Coverage for the trucks, vans, and trailers your repair crews drive to every job — including hired and non-owned auto when employees use personal vehicles for roofing repair business. Built for contractors with storm-season surge capacity.

Explore coverage

Tools & Equipment Coverage

Inland marine coverage for nail guns, compressors, generators, tarps, ladders, and repair equipment — covering theft, accidental damage, and mysterious disappearance at job sites, in transit, and in storage between storm calls.

Explore coverage

Storm Damage Restoration Coverage

Insurance programs designed for the unique risk profile of storm damage restoration roofing — covering surge-capacity crews, elevated volume periods, and the documentation-intensive claims process that follows hail, wind, or hurricane events.

Explore coverage

Commercial Umbrella Insurance

An umbrella extends your GL and auto limits for storm damage restoration contractors who bid commercial repairs or work under GC certificate requirements that demand $5M or more in total coverage.

Explore coverage

Commercial Property Insurance

Covers your office, warehouse, and storage yard — including tarp inventory, repair materials, and business equipment. Especially important for roofing repair contractors who carry significant material inventory through storm season.

Explore coverage

Contractors Pollution Liability

CPL for roofing repair contractors covers bodily injury and property damage from asphalt, solvents, adhesives, and asbestos disturbed during tear-off of old roofing — pollution exposures that standard GL policies exclude.

Why repair roofers switch to us

The coverage gaps that cost roofing repair contractors the most.

Most agents give a roofing repair contractor the same generic GL as a new-construction crew. Then a surge-season cancellation, a completed-ops claim from a repair job, or a denied tools theft claim reveals the gap. We underwrite for the way repair roofers actually operate.

Run by people who know the trades

Contractors Choice Agency was founded in 2005 by Josh Cotner, who came from the trades. We understand storm-season surge capacity, repair vs. new-construction risk profiles, and what happens when a GL policy doesn't have the completed-ops tail a repair roofer needs.

GL with completed-ops for repair work

Repair jobs carry the same completed-operations exposure as new installation — a poor seal or improper flashing causes water intrusion months later. We structure GL so the tail covers repair work correctly.

Workers' comp that accommodates surge crews

Storm season can triple your crew overnight. We place workers' comp that handles surge payroll and variable crew sizes without mid-season cancellation or audit shock.

Tools and equipment that follows the repair crew

Repair tools and tarps at storm-damage sites are frequent theft targets. Our inland marine covers tools wherever your crew goes — job site, truck, storage yard.

Storm restoration coverage for surge operations

Standard contractor programs aren't built for storm-season restoration work. We place programs with markets that understand the volume, documentation, and surge risk of storm damage contracting.

CPL for roofing material and solvent exposure

Hot asphalt, solvents, and adhesives used in repair work create pollution exposure GL excludes. We place CPL specifically for roofing repair contractors — including asbestos disturbance on tear-off.

Run by a former contractor

From roofing repair contractors

Repair roofers who found coverage that actually pays.

Storm season hit and we tripled our crew size overnight. Our old carrier cancelled mid-season. Roofing Repair Insurance placed a program that accommodated our surge payroll and kept us covered through the busiest weeks of the year. That's the kind of agency you want in your corner.

Storm Damage Contractor · Texas

A completed-operations claim came in eight months after a repair job — the homeowner said the flashing wasn't properly sealed. The coverage was in place because this agency structured it right the first time. Other agents just give you a cheap GL; these guys build the real program.

We had a tools trailer stolen at a storm-damage site. The inland marine paid within days — no fight, no argument about whether it was covered off-premises. I've had that fight with other agents. Not here.

Questions, answered

Roofing repair insurance, in plain English.

A roofing repair contractor typically needs general liability with completed operations, workers' compensation, commercial auto, tools and equipment coverage (inland marine), and often commercial umbrella and contractors pollution liability. Storm restoration specialists may also benefit from programs specifically designed for surge-capacity work.

Cost depends on crew size, payroll, revenue, repair vs. storm restoration mix, seasonal volume, states worked, and loss history. We quote your actual operation in about 15 minutes — never a generic estimate.

Yes, in meaningful ways. Repair work is more variable — smaller jobs, more frequent completed-ops exposure per job, storm-season volume swings, and different crew deployment patterns. We place programs sized for repair operations, not new-construction crews.

Yes — your GL covers your operations during storm restoration work, including third-party property damage during the job and completed-operations liability afterward. But make sure the completed-ops tail is structured correctly, because repair work creates just as much post-job exposure as full installation.

It's a claim that arises after a repair job is done — like a homeowner claiming water intrusion from a poorly sealed pipe boot or flashing repaired months ago. GL with proper completed-ops coverage defends and pays these claims.

Yes. We work with markets that understand seasonal payroll swings and can structure workers' comp and GL programs that accommodate surge capacity without mid-season cancellation or audit surprises.

It should — if structured correctly. Seasonal and surge workers need to be reflected in your estimated payroll. We structure workers' comp to cover your seasonal volume so an audit at year-end doesn't produce a large unexpected bill.

Nail guns, compressors, generators, ladders, tarps, hand tools, and any equipment your crews take to job sites. Inland marine covers these at job sites, in trucks, and in transit — where standard commercial property doesn't reach.

Yes. Hired and non-owned auto (HNOA) covers liability when employees drive personal vehicles on your business. Without it, an at-fault accident in a personal truck driven for your company's repair jobs could leave your business exposed.

Yes — emergency tarping is covered under your GL and workers' comp as a roofing operation. This is often the first work done after a storm event and creates real fall and injury exposure that needs to be covered.

Yes. Many repair contractors also do full re-roofs after storm damage. We build programs that cover your full scope — repair, restoration, and reroof work — under one coordinated policy.

CPL covers bodily injury and property damage from pollutants released during roofing repair operations — hot asphalt, solvents, adhesives, and asbestos disturbed during tear-off of old roofing. Standard GL excludes these exposures; CPL fills the gap.

Depending on your state, yes. Many states require a contractor license bond as a condition of roofing contractor licensure — regardless of whether you do new installation or repair only. We can place bonds alongside your insurance.

Yes. We structure programs with GL, workers' comp, and commercial auto that cover multi-state operations — including contractors who follow storm systems across state lines during busy seasons.

Yes — especially for contractors bidding commercial repair work or working for GCs who require $5M or higher combined limits on certificates. An umbrella above your GL and auto provides those limits at a relatively low cost.

Roofing repair crews typically fall under the same codes as roofing installation — code 5551 and related codes depending on state and work type. Correct classification is critical for accurate workers' comp pricing and avoiding audit surprises.

Yes. Contractors Choice Agency is licensed in all 50 states and has markets for roofing repair contractors whether you're in a storm-market state or working year-round residential repair anywhere in the country.

Typically 15 minutes on a call. Programs with surge-capacity needs or multi-state exposure may take a day or two with certain markets, but we move fast and set expectations up front.

Usually yes. Bundling GL, workers' comp, commercial auto, and tools into one coordinated program closes gaps between policies and is typically cheaper and cleaner than separate policies from separate carriers.

Often yes. We have admitted and E&S markets for repair contractors declined over loss history, storm-season claim volume, or high-hazard exposure. Bring us your situation and we'll find a path.
