No. Contractors Choice Agency is licensed in all 50 states and writes environmental contractor programs for crews anywhere in the country — Gulf Coast and Texas, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, Rust Belt and Great Lakes, California and West Coast, Southeast, Rocky Mountain, Pacific Northwest, and everywhere in between.

Yes. Because we're licensed nationwide, a single program can follow your crews across state lines — CPL, GL, workers' comp, professional, auto, and mobile equipment coverage coordinated without gaps.

Yes. We have markets that write petrochemical, brownfield, Superfund, and federal facility cleanup exposures and structure your CPL, GL, and professional coverage so you're protected on the most demanding industrial and government sites.

Typically 15 minutes for a standard program. Once bound, we turn around additional-insured certificates, pollution extensions, waivers of subrogation, and license bonds usually within minutes — wherever you're working.

They do. Refinery density, brownfield inventory, Superfund sites, state cleanup standards, and federal facility work all shape both how you operate and how the risk is underwritten. We account for your region's industrial and regulatory environment when structuring your program.

Most environmental contractors pay $3,500–$12,000 a year for $1M/$2M general liability, plus a CPL policy from $2,500–$15,000+, with workers' comp rated on payroll by abatement class code. We quote the full program in about 15 minutes and show every market's price.

Yes. Contractors Choice Agency is licensed in all 50 states and writes remediation and abatement crews from the Gulf Coast and Texas to the Rust Belt, California, and the Northeast.

About 15 minutes for a standard program. Once bound, we turn around additional-insured certificates — including pollution extensions, waivers of subrogation, and primary/non-contributory endorsements — usually within minutes.

The ISO general liability form contains a builtin Pollution Exclusion that removes coverage for bodily injury, property damage, and cleanup arising from pollutants. The only way to cover the pollution exposure is a separate Contractors Pollution Liability (CPL) policy — which is why CPL is the core policy for environmental contractors.

Asbestos abatement is typically class 5473, lead abatement around 5474 or 5403 with lead endorsement, mold remediation often 5403 or a specialty mold code, and hazmat handlers under codes like 6232 or 9015. Correct classification keeps you from overpaying or facing an audit surprise — and ensures claims aren't denied for misclassification.

Mobile and specialty equipment is covered under an inland marine (mobile equipment) policy, not GL or property. We schedule excavators, frac tanks, HEPA vacuums, air monitors, and confined-space gear at replacement cost so jobsite, transit, and overturn damage are covered.

Most carry $1M/$2M GL with a matching $1M/$2M CPL policy and a $2M–$5M umbrella. Refineries, Superfund primes, and government clients often require $5M–$10M combined limits plus additional-insured status with pollution extension. We size limits to your actual contract requirements.

Yes — and it must be rated for hazardous-material hauling. A generic contractor auto policy may deny a claim involving a contaminated load. We rate vacuum trucks, tankers, roll-offs, and super-suckers for the real remediation hauling exposure.

Often, yes. We have excess-and-surplus (E&S) environmental markets for contractors with loss runs, releases, cancellations, or tough exposures that standard markets decline.

Your GL and CPL don't cover independent subs — they should carry their own environmental coverage and name you additional insured. We set up certificate tracking and additional-insured requirements so subcontracted work doesn't become your liability or your pollution exposure.

You reach a person with context, not a queue. We respond within 2 hours, help you document the pollution condition, coordinate cleanup and defense with the carrier, and manage the claim so it's paid correctly and your operation keeps moving.

Environmental work has pollution, hazmat, and professional exposures that generic carriers exclude or misprice. A specialty broker knows the abatement class codes, the markets that write CPL, how to coordinate GL with the pollution exclusion, and how to manage a pollution claim.
