Why Commercial Umbrella Coverage Matters
Standard liability policies (general liability, auto liability, employer’s liability) all have coverage limits. One major lawsuit can exceed those limits, leaving your business exposed. An umbrella policy provides additional protection on top of existing policies.

Who Needs Commercial Umbrella
Construction & Trades
Large jobs, subs, cranes, and heights. Meets client/GC requirements and adds limits above GL, Auto & Employers Liability.
Transportation & Logistics
Fleets, last-mile, owner-ops. High-severity auto claims demand extra protection layered over auto liability.
Property Owners & Managers
Apartment complexes, HOAs, commercial buildings. Foot traffic & premises exposure—often required by lenders/landlords.
Hospitality, Bars & Restaurants
Liquor service, events, late hours. Umbrella can sit over GL and liquor liability when underlying coverage is in place.
Manufacturing & Distribution
Products shipped nationwide or into big-box retail. Vendors/retailers often require $2M–$10M total limits.
Retail & E-Commerce
High foot traffic and product exposure—especially multi-location or seasonal spikes.
Healthcare & Social Services
Patient interaction, mobile clinics, volunteers. Extra cushion for third-party injury claims.
Professional & Service Firms
Client-facing offices, on-site work, and HNOA exposure. (Umbrella is not a substitute for E&O.)
Nonprofits & Community Orgs
Fundraisers, outreach, volunteers, and venues. Helps with venue certificate and grant requirements.
Municipalities & Public Entities
Utilities, public works, transit, parks. Wide public interface with severe-loss potential.
Events, Venues & Entertainment
Concerts, festivals, sports, rentals. Crowd and spectator risks often require higher limits.
Agriculture & Agribusiness
Farm operations, agritourism, and transport. Premises and auto exposures benefit from added layers.
Contract Requirements
If a client, GC, or landlord demands $5M+ or “umbrella/excess required,” this is the cost-effective way to comply.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is commercial umbrella insurance?
It’s extra liability coverage that sits above your underlying policies (General Liability, Commercial Auto, and Employers Liability). When a covered claim exhausts those limits, the umbrella keeps paying—up to the umbrella limit.
Umbrella vs. Excess Liability, what’s the difference?
An umbrella can be broader and may “drop down” in limited cases. Excess liability is typically strict follow-form (only adds limits, no broader terms). Many modern “umbrellas” act like excess—so reviewing the form matters.
What underlying policies and limits do I need?
Common carrier requirements: General Liability $1M per occurrence / $2M aggregate, Auto Liability $1M CSL, and Employers Liability $500k–$1M. Your exact minimums depend on the carrier and your class of business.
What does a commercial umbrella usually cover?
Bodily injury, property damage, and personal/advertising injury liability after your underlying limits are used up, typically for GL, Auto, and EL. It also helps satisfy higher contract requirements.
What’s not covered?
Your own business property, workers’ comp benefits, professional liability (E&O), employment practices (EPLI), cyber, product recall, most pollution, and intentional acts—unless specifically endorsed. The umbrella follows its own exclusions.
How much umbrella limit should I buy?
Start with the biggest contract requirement you face, then add cushion. Consider your asset size, revenue, foot/vehicle traffic, locations, and loss history. Typical small/mid businesses buy $1M–$10M; higher-hazard industries often go higher.
How are premiums calculated?
Industry/class, revenue and payroll, number/type of vehicles, driver and loss history, locations, and selected limit. Many small businesses see starting points in the low four figures, but heavy auto or higher-hazard ops pay more.
Does the umbrella include defense costs?
Often yes, how it pays varies. If it’s following an underlying claim, it usually follows that policy’s defense terms. If it “drops down,” defense may be inside limits and subject to a self-insured retention (SIR). Read the form (we can help).
Will additional insureds on my GL/Auto be covered by the umbrella?
Typically, yes—if they’re covered by the underlying policy and the umbrella follows form. Make sure those entities are properly scheduled on the primaries.
Can one umbrella cover multiple companies or locations?
Usually, if they’re related and scheduled, and the underlying policies align. Ownership and operations matter. We’ll structure it so the umbrella actually sits above every place you need it.
Real-world example?
A delivery truck causes a multi-car accident. Auto Liability pays its $1M limit, but the settlement is $2.2M. A $2M umbrella pays the remaining $1.2M (subject to terms), protecting the business from writing a catastrophic check.
How fast can I get a quote or certificate?
Fast if your underlying policies, limits, and loss runs are ready. Many straightforward accounts can be turned around quickly; complex fleets or tough classes take longer. We’ll guide the process and issue COIs once bound.
