Independent contractor coverage review
In Florida construction, workers' comp generally applies once you have one or more employees, and owners, LLC members, and corporate officers are counted unless they hold a valid state exemption. A quick review can catch gaps before a GC, property owner, or state audit raises the question. This is general information, not legal advice.
Workers' comp issues often show up at the worst time: when a general contractor asks for a certificate, when payroll changes, when a subcontractor question appears mid-job, or when an audit starts asking harder questions than anyone expected. The goal here is to review the setup early, while there's still room to fix anything that looks off.
That matters even more for trades with tougher risk profiles. Roofing, restoration, concrete, and general contracting usually face closer scrutiny than low-hazard classes. A calm coverage review now is easier than scrambling after a certificate request, a renewal surprise, or a state compliance issue.
The review starts with workers' comp compliance, then looks at the contractor coverage pieces that tend to create real-world friction on jobs.
We review how your crews are classified, how payroll is being counted, and whether the policy setup matches the work actually happening on your jobs.
Contractor coverage rarely stands alone. We look at whether the GL and auto pieces line up with your trade, vehicles, and jobsite obligations.
If a general contractor or property owner asks for proof fast, the policy needs to support clean COIs and the right named-insured setup.
Subs without the right paperwork can create expensive problems. We review how uninsured or misclassified subcontractors could affect your workers comp and liability picture.
Florida construction rules treat owners differently than many people expect. We check whether exemptions have been handled correctly and whether the current setup still fits.
Roofing, restoration, concrete, and general contracting usually draw more scrutiny. We look for friction points before renewal, audit, or the next certificate request.
This is meant to be simple: share the basics, get a real review, and understand what needs attention without turning it into a hard sell.

Brandy looks at the workers' comp conversation first, then checks the surrounding contractor coverage pieces that usually cause trouble later.
You get a practical read on gaps, fit, and next steps. It is a review, not a sales pitch and not a coverage promise.
This page leads to the same quote flow already used on bobrieninsurance.com. If you request a review, it goes through the existing quote form and into the normal intake process for follow-up.
O'Brien Insurance Services is an independent agency, not a one-carrier shop. That matters when contractor coverage needs a practical review instead of a one-size-fits-all answer.
