Specialized Protection for Texas Excavation Contractors
Texas excavation contractors operate in one of America’s most dynamic construction markets. Rapid infrastructure development creates massive opportunities. It also creates significant risks.
General liability insurance protects your business when excavators accidentally damage neighboring properties. It covers bodily injuries during site preparation. Texas excavation contractor insurance premiums range from 2.1% to 5.9% of revenue.
That’s surprisingly affordable. Compare it to uninsured claim devastation. The difference is staggering.
The Allen Thomas Group understands excavation work presents unique challenges:
- Underground utility strikes cost thousands in emergency repairs
- Trench collapses endanger workers and equipment
- Equipment failures halt profitable operations
Our specialized approach works differently. Your policy covers excavation-specific risks. Standard business insurance often excludes these exposures.
Equipment insurance coverage protects valuable machinery against:
- Theft and vandalism
- Accidental damage
- Mechanical breakdown
Professional liability insurance shields you from completed operations claims. Improper grading issues. Soil compaction problems. Standard policies miss these gaps.
We’ve helped hundreds of contractors secure comprehensive protection. They report average savings of 15-25% compared to previous coverage. Better protection. Lower costs. That’s expertise working.

Comprehensive Coverage for Every Excavation Risk
Texas excavation contractors face diverse liability exposures. Specialized insurance solutions are required.
Workers compensation insurance protects your crew. Texas rates average $3.80 per $100 of payroll for excavation work.
Texas doesn’t mandate workers comp for private employers. Most general contractors require it anyway. No coverage means no job site access.
Commercial auto insurance covers your fleet:
- Dump trucks
- Equipment haulers
- Service vehicles
Coverage applies on roads and at job sites. Underground utility strikes represent excavation’s costliest risk.
Hit a gas line? Emergency response costs skyrocket. Hit fiber optic cables? Business interruption follows. Hit water mains? Massive liability claims result.
Our inland marine coverage protects excavation equipment:
- Excavators and bulldozers
- Compactors and graders
- Specialized attachments
Protection applies at job sites, in transport, and storage. Construction equipment protection includes mechanical breakdown coverage. Standard property policies exclude this critical protection.
Professional liability insurance addresses completed work claims.
Improper site preparation causing foundation issues months later gets covered. This coverage gap catches contractors off-guard frequently.
Standard general liability policies don’t respond to “professional services” claims.
