Business Interruption Insurance

Updated

What does business interruption insurance cover if my business has to close after a fire?

Business interruption insurance replaces lost net income during the restoration period after a covered loss such as a fire or burst pipe. It also covers continuing expenses like rent, payroll and loan payments, extra expense to operate temporarily somewhere else, and an extended period of indemnity after you reopen. It is usually added to a commercial property policy or a business owner's policy (BOP). Insurance City bases the limit on your real income and explains the exclusions before you sign. Tell us your business and monthly revenue, then call 209-670-1556 or request a quote.

Keeping income flowing when your business can’t open

A fire, a burst pipe, or another covered loss doesn’t just damage property — it stops revenue while you rebuild, and the bills keep coming. Business interruption replaces that lost income so a covered shutdown doesn’t become a permanent one. Insurance City is a local independent brokerage that makes sure this coverage is sized to your real numbers.

What business interruption covers

  • Lost net income during the restoration period.
  • Continuing expenses — rent, payroll, and loan payments that don’t stop.
  • Extra expense — the cost to operate temporarily somewhere else.
  • Extended period of indemnity — income protection after you reopen while you rebuild your customer base.

It’s usually added to a commercial property policy or a business owner’s policy (BOP) — we’ll make sure the limits and the restoration period actually match how long you’d need.
