Umbrella & Excess Liability for spray foam contractors

Not necessarily. Some umbrella carriers require following form with the primary GL; others are more flexible. We compare umbrellas that work with your underlying program — and flag any follow-form requirements.

Most carry $1M–$5M above primary limits. Commercial and industrial contractors with large project values or high contract minimums often carry $5M+. We size the umbrella to your actual risk and contract requirements.

Some umbrella carriers include pollution above primary CPL limits; others exclude it. We compare what's available and whether the umbrella needs to coordinate with your standalone CPL program.

An agent typically represents one carrier. A broker shops multiple carriers on your behalf — comparing rates and policy forms to find the best spray foam program.

Yes. Contractors Choice Agency is licensed in all 50 states and has admitted and E&S market access for spray foam contractors nationwide.

Typically 15 minutes to a few hours for standard spray foam operations. Hard-to-place risks may take longer — we set expectations up front.

Often yes. We have E&S market access for contractors declined over chemical exposure, overspray claims, or prior loss runs. Bring us your situation and we'll find a market.

Not typically. Brokers are compensated through carrier commissions like agents. The market comparison itself is usually what saves money — not an added fee.

Both. We compare rates and the exclusion structures for overspray, isocyanate exposure, and replacement cost vs. ACV on equipment. A lower rate with a worse form often costs more at claim time.

Yes — that's one of the primary advantages of using a broker. E&S markets write risks that standard carriers decline, and access to those markets is what we bring to hard-to-place spray foam accounts.

Yes. We coordinate GL, WC, and commercial auto across crews and state lines — ensuring your program has no gaps when you work outside your home state.

Crew size and payroll, annual revenue, rig and equipment list with values, types of jobs, states you work in, current carrier, and loss history. More detail means a more accurate comparison.

Yes. We present what we found and walk you through what matters — rate, form, exclusions, limits, and carrier rating — in plain English.

Yes. CPL rates and forms differ significantly across carriers. We compare isocyanate coverage structure and pricing across multiple markets.

Not significantly. For most spray foam operations, we have competing quotes ready in 15 minutes to a few hours.

Yes. We compare package programs that bundle GL, property, and equipment — evaluating whether a package or standalone approach gives you better coverage and pricing.

Yes — typically same-day for standard requests. We manage the broker relationship so certificates are issued quickly when your jobs require them.
