Examples:
- John is renovating his townhouse. His contractor is participating in the Shield Indemnity APPC insurance program. The job is estimated at $750,000 at time of permitting. Due to the size of the job they have selected $1,000,000 limit per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate limit of insurance for the job.
First $100,000 rating: $100 X $1.00 = $100 premium
Next $400,000: $400 X .75 = $300 premium
Remaining $250 X .60 = $150
Total Rated premium: $550.
Minimum Premium for $1,000,000/$2,000,000 limits = $197
$550 > $197 therefore job premium is $550
- Michelle is renovating a 2 bedroom row house in Adams Morgan and adding an extra bedroom. The construction will impact the party walls and chimney. The total contract price is $150,000. Due to the size of the job Michelle is interested in pricing for all limits available.
First $100,000 rating: $100 X $1.00 = $100
Next $50,000: $50 X .75 = $38
Total $138
Michelle can buy limits as high at $500,000 each occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate for $138. However, if she opts for the $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 Aggregate the premium will be $197.
