Floods are one of the most common natural disasters a homeowner or business owner can face. Flooding can happen almost anywhere. Before you say “But, I don’t live in a flood plain.” Think again!

Where it can rain, it can flood.

As a homeowner, the projects are never-ending. From small do-it-yourself to large projects that require contractors and permits, there is always at least one project on your To-Do list for your home.

With society's love of HGTV programs like “Fixer Upper” and “Flip That House”, Hollywood's editing magic makes these projects look quick and easy. It is no wonder that homeowners are taking on more home remodeling projects to update or improve your home for your family (or a future family).

Do you need Janitorial Insurance? Running a successful janitorial services business relies on two crucial factors: Your knowledge and experience of client needs and your ability to manage the unique risks you face every day. Why is risk management so important? Unlike most businesses, firms that provide janitorial and cleaning services spend most of their time in other people's buildings and handling others' property. This relies on several key factors, including: Wise selection of employees -- that means trustworthy individuals capable of handling the physical demands of the job, and the ability to follow instructions, often without close supervision. Properly trained employees -- equipping them with the skills to do their jobs effectively, with additional training for new job challenges. Documented safety processes -- for example, wearing the right clothing, using equipment correctly, knowing how to lift safely, and so on. Th ...

Get the Buzz about Insurance in the Texas Restaurant Biz Entrepreneur and author Richie Norton once wrote (in his book The Power of Starting Something Stupid) that procrastination is "like going to a fancy restaurant and filling up on bread and not leaving enough for dinner." Very funny. But if you're actually in the restaurant business -- or thinking about it -- procrastination, the avoidance of making a decision, has very serious implications when it comes to the topic of buying insurance. Dining out, whether it's at a fast food burger joint or a Michelin starred restaurant is growing fast in popularity. But with that growth come new and bigger risks. In the haste to serve your growing horde of customers, beat your competitors and earn a good profit, there's an increasing danger that you might overlook the protection you need to secure the future of your business.
