Alberta Commercial Property Insurance

If you own a business in Alberta, it’s important to have it insured. But are you certain at this moment that you have sufficient commercial property insurance to protect your business? Here is an example of someone that believed his insurance would cover all situations, but was wrong.

Bill S. owned a large art store that held monthly exhibits. His exhibitions had some very expensive paintings and works of art, and every month, many people attended these exhibits. They were excellent advertising and brought in a lot of new business. Bill knew he needed additional insurance for his exhibits so he took out an exhibition floater designed to protect the contents. One day, while setting up his exhibit heavy rains and flash flooding caused significant damage to his exhibit, but this is not the real tragedy.

Bill had “all perils” coverage but failed to read the fine print on the floater for his business property insurance. The policy did not cover floods. Naturally, this caused major damage to Bill’s business and it never was able to recover. This could have been avoided if Bill had checked closer or used an insurance professional that could give him a customized policy.

What is Commercial Property Coverage?

A commercial property policy is designed to protect a business and its property from all types of apparent risks. This includes damage to the property and legal liability on a number of issues related to the business. It is also designed to protect equipment that is business owned. Commercial property coverage is similar to homeowner insurance but this insurance concerns businesses instead of residences.

Who Needs to Take Out This Insurance?

If you have a business and own a shop, property, or building, you need to have it fully insured. This also includes businesses that lease the buildings they operate in. If your company owns equipment stored on site or off site, or when you own commercial real estate and lease it to businesses, you need this protection.

What is Standard with a Commercial Property Insurance Policy?

Most businesses need liability insurance in case someone is injured on the property. If you lease, you need insurance for the contents. Plus, you may need:

  • Structural coverage that includes roof, interior, exterior, foundation, and such, from acts of nature
  • Damage caused by vandalism or theft
  • Inland marine insurance – covers cargo while in transit
  • Machinery and boilers
  • Glass breakage
  • Debris removal after storms
  • Fire damage and payment for fire department fees
  • Office equipment

 

Additional Coverage or Options

There are a wide variety of extras that you may need to consider for your business property insurance. An experienced insurance professional will make sure that all risk factors that can be insured will be properly covered.

Extra protection may include: 
  • Newly acquired Coinsurance tents
  • Coinsurance waiver – in some cases your coinsurance will be waived, saving you a lot of money.
  • Contents of buildings not owned
  • Property owned by employees
  • Business interruption – pays you for downtime due to a covered loss.
  • Consequential property damage (including pair or set) – If you only have “direct” damage coverage only what is damaged will be replaced. For example, part of your roof may be ruined by a storm. With direct coverage, only damaged shingles will be replaced. Consequential damage takes into account that the entire roof should be replaced, as the shingles are part of a matching set.
  • Exhibition floater – covers special events like exhibits and shows.
  • Flood insurance
