Unity Insurance is a locally owned St. Louis brokerage built around construction. General Liability, Workers' Compensation, and the certificates your general contractor keeps asking for — explained in plain language, in English or Spanish.
The requirements most general contractors send over — and what they actually mean.
A St. Louis brokerage, not a call center. You talk to the same people every time.
Quotes, questions, claims and certificates handled in English or Spanish.
General Liability and Workers' Comp for trades is what we do every day.
Certificates, renewals, billing and mid-term changes — handled after the policy binds.
Every line below is written to satisfy a real contract requirement — not to pad a policy. If you're not sure which ones apply to your job, that's exactly the conversation we want to have.
The policy almost every general contractor, property owner and municipality asks to see before you set foot on a site.
Covers medical bills and lost wages when someone on your crew gets hurt — and keeps you compliant with Missouri law.
Your truck is a work vehicle. A personal auto policy can deny a claim the moment it's carrying tools or a crew.
Inland marine coverage for the gear that actually earns the money — on the job site, in the truck, or in transit.
Your shop, office, yard or warehouse — plus the stock, furniture and equipment inside it. Often bundled to save premium.
When a contract calls for limits higher than your underlying policies carry, an umbrella is usually the cheapest way to get there.
From a two-person crew taking its first commercial job to an established contractor managing dozens of certificates a month — the work looks different, the paperwork doesn't.
Don't see your trade? We write most construction and skilled-trade classes. Call us and we'll tell you straight.
You shouldn't need to learn insurance to win a contract. Send us what you were given and we'll take it from there.
Forward the contract, the insurance requirements page, or just the email your GC sent. We read the fine print and translate it into plain language — what's required, what's optional, and what it will realistically cost.
As an independent brokerage we're not tied to one company. We take your operation to multiple carriers, compare what comes back, and show you the real trade-offs between price and coverage.
Once you choose, we bind coverage and issue the certificate of insurance with the additional insured, waiver of subrogation and primary/non-contributory wording your contract actually calls for.
New job, new certificate. Payroll changed, add a truck, renewal coming, a question about a bill — you call us, we handle it. That part doesn't stop when the policy binds.
Plenty of agents will sell you a policy. Far fewer will still be answering the phone in October when a general contractor rejects your certificate over one line of missing wording and you can't start Monday.
Request as many as you need, as often as you need them. New GC, new site, new certificate — no charge, no runaround.
We endorse the policy properly instead of typing a name on a certificate and hoping nobody checks.
We watch the calendar so a lapsed policy never costs you a job or puts you out of compliance.
Send us the insurance page before you sign. We'll tell you what you're agreeing to and whether your policy covers it.
We get you onto autopay or a monthly installment plan, walk you through the carrier's billing portal, and sort out payment problems before a missed invoice turns into a cancelled policy.
If something happens on site, call us first. We'll walk you through reporting it and stay in the loop with the carrier.
Two languages, and the language of the job site. We'd rather spend an extra twenty minutes making sure you understand what you're buying than sell you something you'll find out about during a claim.
We live and work in the St. Louis area. We know the general contractors, the municipalities, and the requirements that come up around here — because we deal with them every week.
Not a translated web page and an English-only phone line. Quotes, applications, certificate requests and claims are all handled in Spanish when that's easier for you.
We're a brokerage, not a captive agency. That means we can take your risk to more than one carrier and recommend the one that actually fits — including when the cheapest option isn't it.
Deductibles, exclusions, class codes, what an uninsured subcontractor can end up costing you — we go through it before you commit, not after something goes wrong.
Certificate requests don't wait for business hours to become urgent. When you need something to start a job, tell us — we'll tell you honestly how fast we can turn it around.
You won't retell your story to a new representative every time. The person who quoted your policy is the person who handles your certificates and renewals.
The questions contractors ask us most. If yours isn't here, call — we'd rather answer it than have you guess.
Fill this out and a licensed agent from our office will reach out — usually the same business day — to confirm details and start shopping your coverage. No obligation, no pressure.
Send it over. We'll read it and tell you what it actually means — no charge, whether you buy from us or not.
