We've built our entire practice around specialty contractor insurance. Steel erection and metal construction is one of the niches we know best.
Metal erection contractors operate at the intersection of the most dangerous construction trades: heights, heavy lifts, ironwork, and crane operations simultaneously. Generic contractors insurance programs are not built for these combined exposures.
Contractors Choice Agency has developed relationships with specialty underwriters who write ironworkers, crane operators, and structural steel crews as their core business — not as incidental risks added to a broader book. That means access to occurrence-based policies, realistic limits, and claims teams who understand OSHA Subpart R and ANSI B30 standards.
When a falling-object incident produces a fatality claim on your project, you need a carrier who has handled similar claims before and an agent who can navigate the policy language. We've built that network specifically for steel erection contractors.
We maintain direct access to specialty markets that write rigger's liability for steel erectors — covering the care, custody, and control gap that standard GL policies leave open.
Workers comp classifications for steel erectors are complex. Using the wrong code costs you real money. We ensure correct placement of ironworker, crane operator, and erection codes from day one.
Our team understands the steel erection standard (29 CFR 1926.750–760). We can speak to underwriters about your safety program using the same technical language they use.
Generate your own COIs on demand, 24/7, through our client portal. No waiting for your agent while a GC holds up your mobilization.
We help structure umbrella programs that work for operations using multiple owned or rented cranes across simultaneous projects — without coverage gaps between schedules.
Metal building erectors working with PEMB manufacturers (Nucor, BlueScope, Chief) have unique warranty and bonding requirements. We know those programs.
