Wisconsin Siding Installer Insurance
Siding installer insurance is general liability insurance, also commonly referred to as commercial general liability insurance. As a Wisconsin siding installer, you need this as your first line of defense against lawsuits. General liability insurance helps protect you against bodily injury and property damage claims. It’s also designed to protect your premises, products, operations, and completed operations.
You will see limits like $300,000/$600,000, $500,000/$1,000,000 & $1,000,000/$2,000,000, as these are most common. The first number is simply the most an insurance company will pay for any one claim. It’s called an occurrence limit.
The second figure is the most an insurance company will pay for in one policy year. This limit is referred to as the aggregate limit. Wisconsin siding installer insurance or general liability insurance can also come with a deductible on the property damage coverage section. Common property damage deductibles are $500, $1,000 & $2,500 and should be taken into consideration prior to buying your siding installation insurance.

Many times, you will need proof of insurance for the WI siding business. This proof is referred to as a certificate of insurance. The certificate has your name and address, your insurance company, and coverage limits, policy dates and it is signed by your agent. Also listed is the certificate holder, the person or company looking for proof. Their name and US mailing address go in the bottom left corner of the certificate.
We would need this information, plus a way to get it there such as an email address or fax number. Email normally works best then we can copy your when sending the certificate of insurance out. Many times, a general contractor will ask for special coverage(s) to be added to your siding installers insurance, such as additional insured, transfer of the right, or waiver of subrogation. We also see requests for primary non-contributory wording and completed operations coverage. Don’t worry about all these technical terms, just send us a copy of the requirements to review. We will help you get the proper protection, get the job, and get paid.
