Business Insurance Coverage Options
Every business has different risks, so the right coverage depends on what you do, where you operate, what you own, and how your business is structured.
Depending on your business, insurance options may include:
General Liability Insurance
General Liability Insurance can help protect your business against certain third-party claims involving bodily injury, property damage, and personal or advertising injury.
For example, if a customer is injured at your business or your operations accidentally damage a client's property, general liability coverage may help with covered expenses.
Commercial Property Insurance
Commercial Property Insurance can help protect business buildings and physical assets such as equipment, inventory, furniture, computers, and other property from covered losses.
Business Owner's Policy (BOP)
A Business Owner's Policy combines certain property and liability coverages into one policy. A BOP can be a convenient option for many eligible small businesses that want broad protection in a simplified package.
Commercial Auto Insurance
If your business owns or uses vehicles for business purposes, Commercial Auto Insurance can help address risks associated with accidents, vehicle damage, and liability.
Workers' Compensation Insurance
Businesses with employees may have workers' compensation requirements. Workers' compensation coverage can provide benefits for covered work-related injuries and illnesses, including applicable medical and wage-loss benefits.
Professional Liability Insurance
Professional Liability Insurance, also known as Errors and Omissions Insurance, can help protect certain professional service businesses against covered claims related to mistakes, negligence, omissions, or alleged failure to provide professional services as expected.
Cyber Liability Insurance
Businesses increasingly depend on computers, online systems, and digital information. Cyber Liability Insurance can help address certain financial losses associated with covered cyber incidents, data breaches, ransomware, and other cybersecurity risks.
Equipment and Tools Coverage
Contractors, landscapers, handymen, and other service businesses often depend on tools and equipment to perform their work. Depending on the policy, coverage may help protect eligible business equipment against covered theft, damage, or loss.
Business Interruption Insurance
A covered property loss can temporarily interrupt your operations. Business Interruption Insurance may help replace certain lost income and continuing expenses during a covered interruption.
Commercial Umbrella Insurance
Commercial Umbrella Insurance can provide an additional layer of liability protection above certain underlying policies when higher limits are appropriate for your business.
Not sure which coverages your business needs? That's where working with an insurance professional can help. We can review your operations and discuss coverage options based on your specific circumstances.
Business Insurance for Ohio Industries

Landscaping companies may operate expensive equipment, transport tools between job sites, and work on customer properties. Insurance can help address risks involving property damage, injuries, equipment, vehicles, and other exposures.
Handyman Insurance
Handymen work on a wide range of residential and commercial projects. Coverage can help address risks associated with property damage, customer injuries, tools, equipment, and business vehicles.
Commercial Property Insurance
Commercial property owners may need protection for buildings, liability exposures, rental income, and other risks associated with owning or managing commercial property.
