Covers lost income and ongoing expenses when a covered event forces your Dallas business to close temporarily.
Business interruption (BI) insurance replaces your lost income and pays continuing expenses when a covered peril forces your business to shut down temporarily. This includes rent, payroll, loan payments, and the profit you would have earned during the closure period.
North Texas hail storms, tornadoes, and flash floods cause property damage that forces closures. A restaurant with a damaged roof might close for weeks. A warehouse flooded by a sudden storm loses inventory and revenue. BI coverage keeps your business alive during recovery.
BI is typically included in a BOP or added to a commercial property policy. Standalone BI: $500 to $3,000/year depending on revenue and industry. The cost is a fraction of what a prolonged closure would cost.
"A kitchen fire shut us down for 6 weeks. Business interruption insurance covered our rent, staff payroll, and lost revenue — over $120,000 total."

Sometimes. Many BOPs include basic BI. Standalone property policies may require it as an endorsement. We always check and recommend adequate limits.
Most standard policies exclude virus and pandemic. Some carriers offer limited pandemic BI endorsements. We can explore options.
Typically 12 months from the date of loss. Extended BI endorsements can add 30-180 days after you reopen to account for the ramp-up period.
