Why this class matters to Coterie

Other Building Finishing Contractors ranks #49 on Coterie’s Top 100 classes list (December 2025), so this is a business type Coterie actively writes.

Typical risks

For building finishing contractors, common claims include damage to finished surfaces, trips over materials and dust damage. Homeowners, property managers and GCs routinely ask for a certificate before work starts.

GL and BOP, explained

General liability covers third-party bodily injury, property damage and, for most classes, personal and advertising injury. Per-occurrence limits are $300K, $500K, $1M or $2M, with aggregates at twice that, and the policy includes medical payments and damage to rented premises.

A BOP can protect office property, and contractor tool coverage can be added at higher limits. A business owner’s policy combines liability, property and business income in one policy.

Before you quote

Contractor eligibility is capped at $5M in revenue and 15 employees. General contractors, paper contractors, firms with subcontractor costs over half of revenue, equipment rental to others, and exterior work above three stories are outside the appetite. Across all classes, Coterie generally accepts up to $10M in revenue and 50 employees, one location per policy, no more than two losses in five years (none over $15K) and no prior cancellations or non-renewals. Home-based and newer businesses are welcome.
