Appalachian UW will write a B Contractor with a lapse of less than 6 months
through either National Liability & Fire or Mid-West Employers.

Other than that SCIF would be the only other option afaik.

Good luck!

You can try First Comp-Markel if they have less than 20k payroll. If over 20k Tower has some decent rates for 9008 new venture guys.

Hello All, Are any of you aware of what carriers write CA Artisan Contractors w/ Residential Completed Ops (1185 or equiv). Most carriers I work with only issue completed ops endorsements on commercial jobs. Tract home coverage is also needed. Admitted or E&S is fine. AFAIK, Benchmark issues Res...

I believe Companion and/or Castlepoint might entertain this risk with a lapse.
If not, it'll more than likely need to get SCIF'd.

I'm looking for a commercial auto market in CA with competetive rates. Currently with Infinity and their rates seem pretty high. 40 veh/40 drivers.
I appreciate your suggestions.
