Contractors Insurance in Texas

Built for licensed contractors who can’t afford a gap in coverage.

Contractors Insurance for Texas businesses

Contractors insurance from ProRisk protects your license, your crew, and every job site you work on. Whether you’re a general contractor pulling permits, a roofer climbing in 110° heat, or a one-truck handyman, the right policy keeps you bondable, OSHA-compliant, and on the hook for nothing more than the work you signed up for.

Texas has more registered commercial trucks and active contractors than any other state. ProRisk Insurance provides TxDMV-compliant trucking policies and Texas-specific contractor liability and bond coverage built for the Lone Star economy.

What Contractors Insurance Covers

General Liability

Covers bodily injury and property damage you cause on the job — required by almost every GC, property manager, and city permit office.

Workers’ Compensation

Mandatory the moment you hire your first W-2 employee. Pays medical bills and lost wages if a worker gets hurt on site.

Commercial Auto

Trucks, vans, and trailers used for the business — personal auto policies will not pay claims on a work vehicle.

Tools & Equipment

Replaces stolen or damaged tools, ladders, compressors, and small equipment on the jobsite or in the truck.

Surety / License Bonds

Required to pull or maintain your contractor license. We write CSLB, AZ ROC, NV NSCB, and TX bonds.

Builder’s Risk

Covers a structure under construction against fire, theft, vandalism, and weather until the job is complete.

Contractors Insurance FAQs (TX)

How much does contractors insurance cost?

Most small contractors pay $50–$200/month for general liability alone. Pricing depends on trade, payroll, claims history, and state. Get a free quote in under 10 minutes.

Do I need workers comp if I’m a sole proprietor?

In California, contractors with C-39 (roofing) licenses are required to carry workers comp even with no employees. In AZ, NV, and TX, sole props are usually exempt — but most GCs will refuse to hire you without it.

Can I get a Certificate of Insurance the same day?

Yes. Once your policy is bound we can issue COIs with additional insureds in under an hour.

What is a contractor license bond?

A bond is a financial guarantee to the state and your customers that you’ll perform work to code. It is not insurance for you — it protects the consumer. ProRisk writes bonds in all four states.
