Piecing Together the Right Lake Tahoe Landscaping Insurance Policy

Insurers often lump artisan contractors, such as landscaping professionals, into the same insurance category as a general contractor in order to simplify risk assessment and policy planning, however these two categories are far from the same. Artisan contractors often specialize in one or two specific areas of practice, offering expertise and skilled services within their chose fields. On the other hand, general contractors often know a little about a lot of fields. They rarely specialize in a single area but possess the ability to work in a variety of different settings and oversee the entire construction project in a more managerial role. While many contractors face similar risk exposures, each specialty or area of expertise presents highly specific hazards. That’s why Cal-Nevada Insurance Agency is committed to providing comprehensive risk management services to artisan contractors and Lake Tahoe Landscaping Insurance programs tailored to each individual industry’s needs.
