Key Benefits
All-Risk vs Named Perils
All-risk (special form) policy covers any peril not specifically excluded — stronger than named perils, which only cover listed events. Standard for commercial property in most markets.
Business Interruption Coverage
Replaces lost income and covers ongoing expenses when a covered weather event forces your operations to close — typically 12 months of coverage with an optional 24-month extended period of indemnity.
Builders Risk for Active Projects
Coverage for buildings under construction — closes a critical gap since standard property policies exclude structures not yet complete. Essential for contractors with in-progress projects exposed to weather.
Flood + Earthquake Endorsements
Flood and earthquake are almost always excluded from standard property policies. Separate flood insurance (NFIP or private) and earthquake endorsements close those gaps for geographies where they matter.
Debris Removal + Cleanup
Often a sub-limit on property policies — the cost of removing debris and cleaning up after a weather event can exceed building damage. Negotiate adequate debris removal limits based on structure size.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Commercial property insurance is the primary coverage for weather damage to your building and business contents. Business interruption insurance replaces lost income if operations have to shut down. Builders risk covers structures under construction. Flood and earthquake require separate policies or endorsements.
No. Flood is a near-universal exclusion on commercial property policies. Coverage requires a separate flood policy — either through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or a private flood insurer. Properties in FEMA-designated flood zones typically pay more; private flood markets can offer competitive alternatives.
For most commercial businesses, 12 months of projected revenue plus ongoing fixed costs. The calculation considers payroll, rent, loan payments, utilities, and lost profit. A business generating $1M in annual revenue should carry at least $1M in business interruption limits, often more if reopening will take longer than initial estimates.
Yes, wind and hail are standard covered perils on most commercial property policies. However, geographies with elevated wind or hail risk (coastal, tornado alley, hail belt) often face percentage deductibles — typically 1%-5% of insured value rather than flat dollar deductibles. Know your deductible structure before a loss, not after.
Ordinance and law coverage pays for the increased cost of rebuilding to current code when an older building is damaged. Without it, a commercial property policy pays to rebuild what was there — but if local code requires upgrades (ADA, fire suppression, electrical), those costs fall on the insured. An essential endorsement for any building over 10 years old.
Many commercial property policies in high-weather-risk regions use percentage deductibles for specific perils — wind, hail, hurricane, or named storms. A 2% wind deductible on a $500,000 building means the first $10,000 of wind damage is your responsibility. Always confirm whether your property policy uses flat or percentage deductibles, and for which perils.
