FAQ

Common Questions About Drywall Contractors Insurance

Why is dust damage a major concern for drywall contractors?

Drywall dust can destroy electronic equipment, clog HVAC systems, and trigger health complaints. Standard GL covers this, but proper containment procedures and dust control measures can significantly reduce claims and premiums.

Do I need special coverage for fire-rated assemblies?

If you install fire-rated walls or ceilings, proper coverage is critical. Incorrect installation can lead to massive liability if a fire spreads. Document your work and ensure your GL includes completed operations.

What about coverage for metal stud framing?

Metal stud framing is typically covered under drywall operations, but structural framing may need different classification. Load-bearing metal stud work often requires higher liability limits due to structural risks.

How can drywall contractors reduce insurance costs?

Dust containment systems, avoiding structural work, proper moisture barriers, safety training for stilts/scaffolds, and limiting ceiling work all help reduce premiums. Written contracts with hold harmless agreements also help.
