About us

We help contractors buy the insurance they need

Letter from The Founders

Throughout our careers in insurance and technology, we’ve witnessed firsthand how the traditional insurance industry has consistently underserved small and mid-sized businesses — especially contractors. 

The insurance industry’s approach to contractors has remained virtually unchanged for decades – complicated processes, excessive paperwork, and agents who lack specialized knowledge about the unique risks contractors face daily.

We founded ContractorNerd because we believe builders deserve better.

We see something of our own entrepreneurial spirit in every contractor we meet – hardworking professionals who are masters of their trades. You shouldn’t have to become insurance experts. Your focus should be on building and growing your business, not deciphering insurance jargon or waiting days for quotes.

At ContractorNerd, we judge our success by one metric: how much frustration we save contractors. This drives every feature we build, every carrier partnership we forge, and every risk management tool we develop. For us, success means contractors getting the right coverage at fair prices in minutes, not days – and using those savings to strengthen their businesses.

We’ve completely remodeled contractor insurance by combining trades-exclusive expertise with modern technology. This is our promise: contractor insurance that works as efficiently and reliably as you do.
