Insurance After a Non-Renewal or Cancellation

Replace your coverage after a non-renewal or cancellation

When an insurer won’t renew or cancels your policy, your Spot team reads the notice, prepares a new submission and works with brokers to replace the coverage before it ends.

  • The notice read for its reason and end date
  • A new submission that answers the insurer’s concern
  • Keep your broker or switch, with no commissions on premiums

When you need insurance

A notice says your insurer won’t renew your policy, and the date your coverage ends is printed on it.

Coverage to consider

  • General liability

    A replacement quote starts from your operations, locations and current policy, so describe the work as it is today.

    Get quotes
  • Commercial property

    Property insurers review building condition, safety and maintenance, so be ready to show what you’ve fixed or improved.

    Get quotes
  • Commercial auto

    Insurers quote auto from your vehicles, how you use them and your drivers’ histories, so an updated schedule and driver list go into the new submission.

    Get quotes
  • Umbrella and excess liability

    If a primary policy moves to a new insurer, the umbrella’s underlying schedule has to list the replacement policy and its limits.

  • 02

    The expiring policy

    Declarations, forms and endorsements, so the replacement can match or improve on them.

  • 03

    Loss runs

    Claims history from your current and past insurers. Your Spot team can ask your insurers for them.

  • 04

    What you’ve changed

    Repairs, new safety practices, removed drivers or discontinued work that answers the insurer’s concern.

  • 05

    Who holds your certificates

    Landlords, lenders and customers who will need a new certificate once the replacement binds.

Common questions

Should I cancel my policy now and start over?

No. Keep your current policy in force until the replacement binds, and set the new effective date so there’s no gap between them.

What’s the difference between a non-renewal and a cancellation?

A non-renewal means the insurer won’t offer another term when the policy ends. A cancellation ends coverage during the term. Read the notice for which one it is and the date.

Can I find coverage after a non-renewal?

Spot can’t promise any insurer will offer terms. We prepare a submission that explains what happened and what’s changed, and work with brokers to take it to insurers that write your kind of business.

Can my current broker handle the replacement?

Yes, and Spot works with them on it, with no commissions on premiums. If they can’t find a market, we can introduce a broker with different insurer relationships.
