Pie Insurance: General Contractors Insurance Appetite
Pie writes workers' comp for small general contractors, but this is not their core specialty the way restaurants and offices are. For contractors, Pie's WC can be competitive on price, especially for light trades like painting, finish carpentry, and electrical. You will need to pair Pie's WC with a full-package carrier like Travelers, Acuity, or CNA for GL, commercial auto, and inland marine.
