Coverage may not repay lost income or ongoing overhead costs that accrue even though you have a halt in operations following property damage. To get that coverage, you will need to add business income insurance toyour insurance portfolio.
You might also need to supplement your standard commercial property policy with more specialized forms of property coverage, such as:
