Before insurers quote you a premium for your CAR policy, they will first consider a number of factors in order to determine what kind of risk you are.

Do I need to cover temporary site structures?

Sometimes temporary site buildings are automatically included in a CAR policy as long as these are the insured works originally stipulated when buying the policy.

They may be covered under the general definition of the contract works indemnified by the definition of contract works within the policy.
