    Information provided on Thomson Reuters' website:

    It has been over a decade since the publication of the First Edition of Insurance A Guide to Canadian Construction Insurance Law. That time has seen several significant changes in the construction insurance industry.

    The text remains a key risk management tool for participants in the Canadian construction industry as it provides a comprehensive review of the many types of insurance products applicable to Canadian construction projects. It is written in plain language by two leading construction law practitioners with extensive experience in respect of construction insurance and is accessible to all senior construction people.

    This resource stresses on individual chapters, analyzing the core insurances critical to any construction project, including:

    • Builder's risk policies
    • Commercial general liability policies
    • Professional liability policies
    • Boiler and machinery policies
    • Contractor's equipment policies
    • Pollution insurance
    • Bonds and default insurance
