Coverage lines

Eight coverage lines built for abrasive blasting contractors.

Each program below addresses a real risk in sandblasting — from the silica and lead paint dust excluded by standard GL (contractor pollution liability fills that gap) to the high-pressure equipment hazards that require WC with the right blasting class code.

General Liability Insurance

General liability insurance for sandblasting contractors covers bodily injury, property damage, and personal injury claims arising from your blasting operations. Whether you're working on bridges, tanks, or commercial structures, GL is the foundation of your insurance program.

Tools & Equipment Insurance

Sandblasting equipment — blast pots, hoses, compressors, nozzles, and portable rigs — represents significant capital investment. Tools and equipment coverage protects your gear against theft, damage, and breakdown whether it's at the job site, in transit, or in storage.

Essential coverage

Contractor Pollution Liability

Sandblasting generates fine abrasive media, lead-containing paint dust, silica, and other pollutants that can harm workers, bystanders, and property. Contractor pollution liability covers third-party bodily injury and property damage claims from blasting dust, media release, and airborne contamination that standard GL excludes.

Workers' Compensation

Sandblasting is classified as a high-hazard trade due to silica dust inhalation risk, equipment pressure hazards, and exposure to toxic coatings. We place workers' compensation with the right class codes for abrasive blasting — not a generic contractor code — so your rates reflect your actual risk.

Commercial Auto Insurance

Sandblasting contractors haul blast pots, air compressors, scaffolding, and equipment to job sites. Commercial auto insurance covers your trucks, trailers, and towed equipment on the road — liability, physical damage, and cargo for your blasting operation vehicles.

Explore coverage

Umbrella / Excess Liability

A single serious blasting accident — structural damage, a contamination claim, or a worker injury — can exhaust standard GL limits quickly. Umbrella insurance provides additional liability limits above your GL and commercial auto policies, protecting your business against catastrophic loss.

Inland Marine Insurance

Inland marine insurance covers sandblasting equipment, abrasive media, and materials while they're being transported between job sites. Standard commercial auto covers the vehicle; inland marine fills the gap for the high-value equipment you're hauling and the materials you're delivering.

Surety Bonds

Many government, industrial, and commercial blasting contracts require surety bonds — contractor license bonds, performance bonds, or payment bonds. We place surety bonds for sandblasting contractors through A-rated surety markets so you can bid on bonded projects.

Not sure which sandblasting coverage you need?

Most blasting contractors need GL + CPL as a minimum, plus WC if you have employees. We'll build the right program for your operation in one call.
