New Construction (Builders Risk)

New construction is covered upon reporting to AJG and prior to commencement of construction. Building structures and materials owned by the Diocese and intended to be part of said structure on the job site are included. Builders Risk Insurance is often included in contracts from vendors. Please be sure to review with Diocesan Legal Counsel all legal contracts to be sure that you are not being charged for Builders Risk Coverage.

Property of the contractors and their employees, such as tools, equipment, sheds, and machinery is NOT covered.

The contractor shall provide a Certificate of Insurance, which will verify General Liability, Auto Liability and Workers’ Compensation coverage. The certificate for the General Liability policy should include coverage for Premises and Operations, Contractual and Completed Operations, and name the Bishop and the Diocese as an additional insured for limits not less than $1,000,000. For Auto Liability $1,000,000 coverage is also required as well as statutory limit for Workers’ Compensation Coverage. The certificate/policy should also provide at least 30 days notice of cancellation to the Diocesan Pastoral Center Insurance Office (Diocesan Center.)
