Business Insurance FAQs
Common questions from small business owners across Goose Creek, Summerville, and the greater Charleston area.
It depends on your industry, operations, and whether you have employees. Most Goose Creek and Charleston businesses start with general liability, then add commercial property, commercial auto, and workers comp based on their exposure. We build a program around your actual risks.
SC doesn't require it by law. But most landlords, general contractors, and clients require it as a condition of doing business. It's one of the most commonly needed coverages in the Berkeley County and Charleston area. Terms and exclusions vary by carrier.
SC law generally requires workers comp for businesses with four or more employees. Requirements can vary by structure and industry. Penalties for non-compliance can be significant. We help Goose Creek and Lowcountry business owners get the right coverage in place. Terms and exclusions vary by carrier.
A BOP bundles GL and commercial property into one package at a competitive rate. It's designed for small to mid-size businesses with straightforward needs. Not every business qualifies, and a BOP may not cover all exposures. We help you decide if a BOP or separate policies are a better fit.
Standard homeowners policies generally exclude business activities, equipment, and liability. A separate commercial policy or home-business endorsement may be needed to fill those gaps. Terms and exclusions vary by carrier.
Personal auto is designed for personal use. Vehicles used regularly for business — hauling equipment, transporting clients, or making deliveries — may need a commercial policy. Using a personal vehicle for business without proper coverage can create big gaps. Terms and exclusions vary by carrier.
Inland marine covers equipment, tools, and goods in transit or away from your main business address. It's especially relevant for contractors, landscapers, electricians, and plumbers across Berkeley County and Charleston. Terms and exclusions vary by carrier.
Premiums vary based on industry, revenue, employees, claims history, and the coverages you need. A sole-proprietor contractor pays very differently than a restaurant with staff. We shop your risk across multiple carriers for competitive options.
