Contractors and Environmental Remediation

Specialized Protection for High-Stakes Environments

In the world of environmental remediation and specialized contracting, your risks go beyond standard construction accidents. A single accidental spill or the discovery of hidden asbestos can lead to millions in cleanup costs and legal liabilities.

At Madrona Insurance, we recognize that traditional “off-the-shelf” policies often contain “Pollution Exclusions” that leave remediation firms dangerously exposed. We provide the specialized resources and technical expertise to bridge these gaps, ensuring your firm is protected against both common and environmental hazards.

Essential Coverage for Environmental Professionals

Remediation work requires a specific blend of professional and environmental insurance that standard agencies often overlook.

Policy Type

What it Protects

Why Madrona?

Contractors Pollution Liability (CPL)

Sudden and gradual pollution events (spills, leaks, or emissions) caused by your operations.

We ensure your policy includes “Transportation Pollution” to cover spills that happen while hauling waste.

Professional Liability (E&O)

Claims arising from faulty testing, incorrect site assessments, or negligent remediation design.

Our policies are tailored for environmental consultants and project managers to protect their advice.

Pollution Legal Liability (PLL)

Protects your own facilities or job sites against preexisting environmental conditions or new spills.

Essential for developers repurposing “brownfield” sites or managing hazardous waste storage.

General Liability (with Pollution Extension)

Traditional bodily injury/property damage with the specific pollution exclusion removed.

We work with specialty carriers to ensure these two critical policies work in tandem without coverage gaps.

Our Means to Protect You

Environmental remediation is a highly regulated field, particularly in the Connecticut and Massachusetts corridors. Madrona Insurance provides the tools you need to stay compliant and secure:

  • Site-Specific Risk Analysis: We don’t just quote a policy; we analyze your specific project list—whether it’s mold remediation, lead abatement, or soil decontamination—to match you with the right carrier.
  • Specialized Markets: As an independent brokerage, we have access to environmental specialty carriers that understand the technical nature of your work.
  • Regulatory Compliance: We ensure your insurance meets the strict bonding and liability requirements often mandated by state environmental protection agencies.
  • Contractual Risk Transfer: We help you vet your agreements with disposal sites and laboratories to ensure that their liability doesn’t become yours.
