San Antonio, TX, June 2026 — Farmer Brown Insurance Agency has been placing commercial insurance for contractors since 1996. The San Antonio-based brokerage now covers general contractors, roofers, excavators, painters, plumbers, and electricians in every U.S. state, with same-day certificates available on most policies.
John Brown founded the agency when most commercial brokers were still working regionally. Thirty years later, the agency processes quotes and binds coverage the same day for contractors who cannot afford to wait on paperwork before a job starts.
The agency operates as an independent broker, meaning it shops coverage across multiple A-rated carriers rather than representing a single company. For general contractors, that means quotes from several carriers on one call instead of multiple applications. More information is available on the agency's general contractors insurance coverage page.
"We built this around contractors who need coverage fast and do not have time to call five different companies," said John Brown, founder and CEO. "Same day, all 50 states, real prices on the first call. That is what we do."
The agency also covers builders risk, workers compensation, commercial auto, restaurant insurance, and trucking. Bilingual service in English and Spanish is available for all policy types.
