Our objective at PBIB is to offer comprehensive coverage that safeguards your Excavation Contractor business against any potential losses. As insurance brokers, we have the flexibility to select from a range of insurance programs and tailor them to meet your specific insurance requirements. To protect your business from losses that may arise from property damage, personal injury, employee injuries, damage or loss to vehicles or tools & equipment, including legal fees and indemnity, we strongly recommend the following coverages:
PBIB's standard practice is to quote your insurance through multiple insurance carriers to provide you with the best price and coverage that meets your specific needs. All policies have adjustable payment terms, such as annual or monthly payments.
General Liability is the most important insurance coverage for excavators because it protects your company from third-party claims such as property damage or jury verdicts because of your work product. It only takes one minor hiccup to permanently alter the course of your business. If a third party suffers bodily harm or property destruction as a result of your company's negligence, the resulting lawsuit could seriously harm, if not destroy, your business. Our general liability insurance will protect your business assets, your employees, and your overall company from vulnerable circumstances and devastating lawsuits.
General liability insurance may be required by law for your Excavation Contractor license in the state or county where you work. PBIB provides full-service certificates Monday through Friday and 24/7 self-service certificates, this is what we call "Insurance on your time".

Worker's compensation is insurance that provides financial benefits and medical care to employees who are injured or become ill because of their work. Excavator operators are at risk of various injuries due to the nature of their job, such as crush injuries, falls, and repetitive stress injuries. Worker's compensation is particularly important for excavator operators, as it can cover the high costs of medical treatment and lost wages. If you're an excavator operator, it's crucial to know your rights and protections under worker's compensation laws in your state.

Excavation work is risky to people and property. Professional liability insurance (also called errors and omissions insurance) can protect excavators from losses due to mistakes or negligence. This insurance covers legal costs and damages resulting from claims made by clients, third parties, or regulators for errors, omissions, or negligence during excavation. Without this insurance, excavators could face financial losses that could harm their business. Excavators should review their policy carefully to ensure it covers the risks of their work and work with a reputable insurance provider to stay protected.
Professional Liability Insurance can help your business with:
A license bond is a type of surety bond that some states require excavators to obtain before they can operate legally. The bond helps ensure that the excavator will follow all relevant laws and regulations related to their work, and that they will fulfill any contractual obligations they have with their clients.
If an excavator does not comply with these requirements, a claim can be made against the license bond. If the claim is found to be valid, the bond company will compensate the claimant up to the amount of the bond. The excavator is then responsible for repaying the bond company for any payouts made.
Getting a license bond can give clients and regulators confidence that an excavator is committed to operating with integrity and following the rules. It can also help protect the excavator's business by covering any losses that may arise from claims against their license.
