Welding Insurance

Policy Highlights:
 
Colonial General Insurance Agency, Inc. offers a specialized Welding Insurance program designed for contractors performing welding or cutting services for others. This program is ideal for accounts with limited exposure—specifically, those with no more than 15% of their gross receipts coming from metal erection or machinery/equipment installation, servicing, or repair. It is not intended for risks primarily involved in fabrication work.

Ideal Accounts and Appetite

This program targets small to mid-sized mobile or on-site welding contractors. Suitable accounts include independent welders performing repairs, maintenance, or specialty welding in commercial or industrial settings. For example, if you have a client who performs mobile welding on construction sites but has minimal involvement in structural steel erection, this program could be a strong fit.

Accounts that focus heavily on fabrication or have significant exposures related to equipment installation or servicing are outside the appetite.
