  • A burst water pipe could damage your documents, drawings or other valuable papers.
  • A storm could damage your outdoor sign.

Small business property insurance is one of the most important investments ensuring the future of your business. Here are some of the important aspects of your business that commercial property insurance helps protect:

  • Your building
  • Your outdoor sign
  • Your furniture and equipment
  • Your inventory

  • Others’ property

BIG understands that your business is unique and constantly changing. We can tailor our commercial building insurance policy to fit your needs.

Get a Business Owners Policy to Protect Your Small Business

A business owners policy, also known as BOP insurance, combines property insurance, liability insurance, crime coverage and additional protection into one convenient package.

What a BOP covers

Business insurance is a necessity for even the smallest company in order to protect and maintain its financial health. At BIG, we understand how important that is.

Common BOP coverage includes:

  • Property insurance, which protects your building, equipment and inventory
  • Business income insurance, which covers lost income if your operations are suspended because of a covered loss
  • Equipment breakdown insurance, which protects you if your equipment is damaged from power surges, mechanical breakdown, burnout or operator error
  • Personal and advertising injury coverage, which covers copyright infringement, libel and slander
  • Bodily injury and property damage liability, which covers those instances when your employees, products or services cause harm to other people or their property
  • Medical payments coverage, which covers medical expenses resulting from injury to others on property you own or rent
  • Rented vehicle coverage, which provides liability coverage for autos that you lease, hire or borrow

 BOP insurance

Our agents plan to work with you long term. We understand that your small business owners insurance needs will change over time, so we have regular insurance checkups.

As a BIG customer, you’re entitled to excellent claims service, superior customer support, free loss control information and the financial stability that comes from our highly rated carriers.

General Liability Insurance Can Help Protect Your Business from the Unknown

With the day-to-day uncertainties of small business management, general liability insurance is something you cannot do without. Accidents happen – on site, off site, with employees and with customers – no matter how much you’ve planned.

Liability insurance can help cover medical expenses, attorney fees and damages you are legally responsible for. It can also offer protection against situations that may not have even crossed your mind.

For example, any individual or business providing an opinion, making recommendations, designing solutions or offering a service is at risk for a professional liability lawsuit. Nationwide can help with defense costs, regardless of fault. And we offer protection for judgments, court costs and more.

What business liability insurance covers

BIG understands that you need complete business protection, not one-size-fits-all coverage. Our agents will work with you to determine the right type of commercial liability insurance you need for every stage of your business.

We offer coverage for:

  • Professional liability
  • Products and completed operations
  • Fire liability
  • Medical payments
  • Premises liability
  • Employer’s liability
  • Employee benefits liability
  • Employment-related practices liability
