Concrete contractors on the road in Fresno
93 C-8 concrete contractors are licensed in Fresno (CSLB, September 2026), and 65% operate as corporations or LLCs — entities whose vehicles are normally titled to the business and need commercial auto. Neighboring Fresno County markets: Clovis (25), Sanger (12), Selma (11).
Why a personal policy is not enough
Concrete work often involves heavier vehicles than other trades — dump trucks, mixers, pump trucks and equipment trailers. Heavier units can bring different underwriting and, for trucks over certain weights, federal or state motor-carrier filings, so every unit and trailer should be scheduled correctly.
California's private passenger minimums are 30/60/15 (since January 1, 2025); most GCs require $1 million combined single limit on commercial auto.
Checklist
- Schedule every truck, van and trailer titled to the business
- Add hired and non-owned auto for rentals and employee cars
- Insure tools in the truck under inland marine
- Confirm additional insured and waiver wording your GC needs

Frequently asked questions
Does my personal auto policy cover my work truck in Fresno?
Usually not if the truck is titled to the business or used mainly for work; personal policies commonly exclude business use.
Do C-8 concrete contractors need workers' comp with no employees?
Yes. Since January 1, 2023, CSLB requires a workers' comp policy on file for every active C-8 license, regardless of employees. The exemption is no longer available for this classification.
