Why Do I need Commercial Property Insurance?

Commercial property insurance restores your building, contents, business income and rental income after unfortunate but oftentimes commonly experienced losses such as a fire, explosion, water damage from a burst pipe, damage from storms, theft, vandalism, and flood and earthquake (when this type of coverage has been added to the policy). Commercial property coverage helps small business owners get back to normal operations by paying to repair and replace what was lost or damaged after these types of losses, and helps pay for the lost business income or rents that resulted after these events.

What Does Commercial Property Insurance Cover?

Your Building

Commercial property insurance pays for the cost to repair or replace building damages caused by events such as fires, pipe bursts or storms.

Building Contents

Commercial property insurance can also protect you after loss or damage to your stock, machinery, equipment, or other business contents, from events such as theft.

Business Income

After the covered cause of loss, commercial property insurance also helps recover lost income and the resulting extra expenses needed to get your business up and running again.

Commercial Property FAQs
What is a commercial property insurance policy?

After a physical loss or damage occurs, having a commercial property insurance policy helps protect your building, its contents, and any resulting impact on your business income. For example, it can reimburse you for the cost incurred to replace stolen goods, the repairs resulting from the damage to destroyed property and equipment, the lost income that results and extra expenses needed to get your business back to normal.

What does a commercial property insurance policy cover?
  • If your business property falls victim to a fire, theft or destruction from a national disaster, commercial property insurance protects you against the cost to repair or rebuild your building, to repair or replace its contents, and the loss of income that results in shutting down operations due to a covered event.
