Why Work With an Independent Agency?

Generic small-business policies don’t account for the realities of construction — subcontractor risk, project-specific bond requirements, and the differences between trades. Gateway Insurance Associates is independent, which means we shop multiple carriers to build a contractor insurance program that matches your job mix, your subs, and the bonding requirements coming out of every contract you sign.
