Concrete contracting in California is a high-risk, high-reward industry. Whether you're pouring foundations, driveways, or decorative flatwork, protecting your business with the right insurance is essential.

As a California independent insurance agency, we’re not tied to one insurer. We represent multiple carriers to help you secure the best protection at the best price.
Why Insurance Is Critical for Concrete Contractors
Concrete work involves heavy equipment, job site hazards, and liability risks. Without proper insurance, a single accident or lawsuit could threaten your business. Here are the key policies every concrete contractor in California should consider:
Covers third-party injuries and property damage caused by your work. If a client trips over your equipment or a pour, damages nearby property, this policy helps cover legal fees and settlements.
Required by California law if you have employees. It covers medical expenses and lost wages for work-related injuries or illnesses.
Protects vehicles used to transport materials, tools, and crew. Includes liability, collision, and comprehensive coverage.
Insures your tools, mixers, pumps, and other gear against theft, vandalism, or accidental damage.
Adds an extra layer of liability protection beyond your primary policies. Ideal for contractors working on large or high-risk projects.
