Affordable insurance starts with an easy quote
Abatement Contractor Insurance is a specialized environmental liability package designed for contractors who remediate, transport, or dispose of hazardous materials like asbestos, lead, mold, and contaminated soil. Unlike standard construction insurance, which almost always contains an absolute “Pollution Exclusion,” this coverage specifically bridges the gap to cover bodily injury, property damage, and cleanup costs arising from the release of pollutants during your operations.
For abatement professionals, a standard General Liability policy is effectively paper-thin because it excludes the very work you do. If a containment barrier fails during asbestos removal and contaminates an HVAC system, a standard policy would likely deny the claim, leaving you personally liable for millions in cleanup and medical monitoring costs. The EPA enforces strict standards for hazardous material handling, and a single violation or accidental release can trigger federal fines and lawsuits that bankrupt unprotected firms. You need coverage that explicitly affirmatively covers “pollution conditions.”
We build policies that address the full lifecycle of the hazard—from the moment you disturb it to the moment it reaches the disposal site.
Most direct quotes only cover the basics in the left column. We shop multiple carriers to secure the critical add-ons in the right column that actually protect your livelihood.
| Risk Area | Standard General Liability | Abatement Pollution Package |
|---|---|---|
| Asbestos/Lead Dust Release | ✖ Excluded (Pollution) | ✔ Covered |
| Mold Remediation Liability | ✖ Excluded (Fungi) | ✔ Covered |
| Spill During Transit | ✖ Excluded (Auto) | ✔ Covered (TPL) |
| Disposal Site Retroactive Liability | ✖ Excluded | ✔ Covered |
