How Is Artisan Contractor’s Insurance Different From Other Insurance?

An HVAC contractor in Bow, NH, had recently completed the installation of a new heating system at a Hookset, NH, home. The family was away for the weekend but had left the heat on. The frigid temperatures over the next few days should have been no problem, but the pipes froze and burst when the heating on the second floor failed. The water damage was extensive and permeated the house's second and first floors. The Bow, NH, HVAC contractor was found liable. Fortunately, as well as their business owner’s insurance, they also had artisan contractor’s insurance. 

Winters in New Hampshire, even Southern New Hampshire, are cold. Recent trends might suggest a general warming year on year, but it just takes one cold snap to freeze pipes and wreak havoc. When pipes in Bow, Hookset, and Concord, N.H. freeze, who’s liable? 

Who needs Artisan Contractor’s Insurance?

Artisans specialize in specific construction areas, such as electrical work, plumbing repairs and installation, HVAC service, repairs, and upgrades. Often, a general contractor hires artisans to focus on particular areas of a bigger project. But just as often, artisans work on smaller one-off projects working directly with the property owner. No matter which model, an artisan contractor needs specific insurance—Artisan Contractor’s Insurance.
