Maintenance DeductiblesMaintenance Deductibles
General Contractor
We recommend the district consider the use of a minimum maintenance deductible ($5,000-
$25,000) per occurrence because it will ensure that contractors will take affirmative responsibility for securing property at construction site and can help fully or partially offset the district’s Builders’
Risk coverage deductible by the general contractor’s maintenance deductible. (No Deductible applies to Builders’
Risk Coverage)
Multi-Prime
Special consideration should be made when determining maintenance deductibles on multi-
prime projects so that overlapping and duplicative costs are not incurred by the district.
