FAQ

Common questions about contractors errors & omissions insurance

How is E&O different from general liability?

General liability responds to physical property damage and injury; errors & omissions responds to claims that the work or design itself was faulty, even without physical damage.

Do I need E&O if I don't do design work?

Many trades that install or size systems — like HVAC, electrical, and fire protection — carry E&O because workmanship and specification errors are common claim triggers.

Can a claim be filed years after the project is complete?

Yes, that's why continuous E&O coverage matters — claims-made policies respond based on when the claim is filed, not when the work was done.

Does E&O cover the cost of redoing faulty work?

Typically no — E&O covers third-party claims and legal defense, not the cost of correcting your own work, which is why it pairs with general liability rather than replacing it.
