Hunter Insurance Services, Inc. in La Mesa Village has specialized exclusively in California contractor insurance since its 1997 founding on La Mesa Boulevard. The brokerage writes general liability, workers' compensation, commercial auto, and builder's-risk policies for licensed contractors, covering the same trades that perform structural work for firms like CREW Builders, Inc. across East County. Contractor license bonds start at $25,000 as required by the California Contractors State License Board, and Hunter issues performance and payment bonds for public-works bid packages. Carrier appointments through Travelers and multiple surplus-lines markets allow the agency to place coverage for high-risk classifications—including roofing (CSLB C-39) and demolition (CSLB C-21)—that captive agencies typically decline, extending to the fleet policies carried by service vehicles at shops like John's Automotive Care. The brokerage's highest-value placements include wrap-up OCIP/CCIP programs for multi-trade commercial projects exceeding $5 million in total construction cost.
