Best Answer

Absolutely - contact a local independent agent or broker. I've actually insured several sharpening services in my local area over the years. You'll want to request coverage for "broad form property damage" to remove the exlusions in section J (ask the agent to explain the CCC issue - if he/she can't explain then find another agent, quickly...) and you may want to consider some sort of "bailee" coverage, to protect you if anything happens to the property of others in your custody (such as theft).

What is the average cost for general liability insurance for carpentry service in Texas?

There is no average cost of liability insurance for a carpentry service. Remember that your General Liability coverage protects both you and your clients from financial loss. Better protection can instill more confidence in the contractor as well as the customer in the bid selection process and when an unexpected accident occurs. Tender of the lowest bid and the lowest level of protection may not always win the job. Experienced clients may look for professionalism in selecting a contactor. Security, experience and overall quality of bid may be taken into account on the choice jobs. Your premium rate will depend on many factors such as the selected coverage limits and the level or quality of coverage desired. The historical loss history of others in the same profession as you. Your overall exposure or your volume of business. Annual receipt's in jobs completed. Your past experience in your profession and of course, your previous customer satisfaction or claims history. The extent of your use of labor or subcontractors, etc, etc. Basic Coverage will have lower premiums and less coverage. Special Coverage forms or Expanded General Liability policies and BOP or "Business Owners Package Policies" will likely cost more, but they will also provide more comprehensive coverage. Higher limits of protection for both parties to the contract are available. Company vehicles scheduled or blanket coverage as well as tools and equipment may be desired. Workers compensation and medical expense coverage for workers and owners could also be addressed. A small contract carpenter or handyman who does a few jobs a year, say less than 20K or 30K in annual receipts could pay $1,000 or $5,000 per year for basic coverage. A larger operation doing 250K in contract work per year might be paying less than 20,000 per year for basic general liability insurance. Even larger contracting operations might be pay hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars per year. It all depends on the overall risk exposure of the carpenter.
