Why Plumbing Guard Insurance exists

Most agencies treat a plumbing contractor like any other small business — a generic policy, a generic quote, and no one who has read the completed-operations tail on an installed water line or the non-subscriber workers-comp decision a Texas plumber has to make. We built Plumbing Guard Insurance on the opposite idea: pick one class, learn it deeply, and place it with carriers that actually want the work. A connection under a slab that fails two winters after the job, a sewage backup on a drain-cleaning call, and a crew working in a trench are exposures a specialist underwrites on purpose, not exclusions an owner discovers during a claim.

That focus is the whole value. We know to ask whether you run residential service and remodel or commercial and new construction; whether you do drain, sewer, or gas work; whether you carry workers compensation or operate as a non-subscriber; and what your general contractors demand in additional-insured and limit terms — before we quote, not after a certificate request lands on your desk. We place coverage through a 25-market specialty panel and read each account to the real operation.

Who we are

Plumbing Guard Insurance is led by its founders, Nate Jones and Kami Jones.

Work with a team that writes your class

If you run a plumbing business, start with a quote or get in touch — you will be talking with people who know the difference between a service-and-remodel book and a commercial new-construction operation, and who write the coverage to match.
