Wrap-up insurance or wrap-up liability policies are designed to reduce costs and help avoid headaches on major construction projects. Most policies cover all related parties in a construction project under a single umbrella policy. Wrap-up policies offer specific general liability insurance coverage to the owner, general contractor, and sub-contractors involved in a construction project.
Shopping for Wrap-Up Insurance
Before you take out a wrap-up insurance policy, you need to be sure you have an insurance advisor who knows how to secure the right coverage. It can be difficult to address the potential claims a project can face. You need someone who can help you understand how much coverage to purchase. Since these policies are so valuable, costs are typically split between the owner and the primary contractor. Wrap-up policies offer much-needed peace of mind when construction begins.

Wrap Up Liability Insurance FAQ
Why Is Wrap-Up Insurance Good for Construction Projects?
Wrap-up insurance allows construction companies and contractors to protect their business. Wrap-up policies can be purchased for a portfolio of work or on a project-specific basis. Policies can also be purchased by the policy’s owner where construction occurs. Since construction policies carry so many potential risks, it’s important to have a warp-up policy to protect your assets.
What Are the Benefits of Property Owners Purchasing Wrap-Up Liability Insurance?
General contractors typically carry general liability insurance for their operations and subcontractors’ work. Therefore, purchasing a wrap-up policy as a property owner can be redundant. However, when the property owner purchases wrap-up liability insurance, the policy limits are dedicated to the owner and not shared by all parties involved. Not only does this offer more control, but it also helps avoid any markups or insurance surcharges that a contractor might include in the project pricing.
What Size Projects Benefit from a Wrap-Up Policy?
OCIP and CCIP policies are both most effective for projects with values larger than $1 million or projects generating at least $1 million in Workers’ Comp premiums. You may also benefit from a rolling wrap-up policy if you handle multiple projects simultaneously. Talk to your insurance broker to discuss whether a wrap-up policy is right for your next construction project.
Who Is Excluded from Wrap-Up Policies?
In some cases, certain contractors and subcontractors may be excluded due to:
- The nature of their work
- Whether or not they provide direct, on-site labor
- The duration of time spent on the work site
- Small contract values
When is a Wrap-Up Policy Effective for Subcontractors?
Many subcontractors worry about taking out their own policy. However, subcontractors can benefit from these policies in several ways. Wrap-up policies are effective for subcontractors with:
- Protection from rate increases during the project span
- Coordinated claims
- Safety programs
- Higher limits
- Protection from cross litigation
