Who Needs Tools & Equipment Insurance?
Also known as Inland Marine Insurance, tools and equipment insurance is essential for any contractor who owns, rents, or borrows tools—electricians, plumbers, carpenters, HVAC techs, landscapers, and more.
If your business relies on gear you carry to every job, you need tools and equipment insurance. At Affordable Contractors Insurance, we provide contractor-specific policies designed to keep your tools protected and your work moving forward.
What Does Tools & Equipment Insurance Cover?
Tools & Equipment Insurance is essential for contractors because it protects your business from costly setbacks caused by lost or damaged gear. Here’s how it keeps your business running smoothly:
- Theft Protection: Covers the cost of replacing stolen tools or equipment, whether taken from a job site, your vehicle, or a storage location.
- Accidental Damage: Pays for repairs or replacement if your tools or equipment are damaged on the job—such as a dropped power tool or a damaged generator.
- In-Transit Coverage: Protects your tools and equipment while they’re being transported between job sites, ensuring you’re covered wherever the job takes you.
- Rental Reimbursement: Covers the cost of renting replacement equipment while your damaged or stolen items are being repaired or replaced, helping you avoid project delays.
Why Contractors Need Tools & Equipment Insurance?
- Essential for Staying Productive on Every Job Site
- Covers Expensive Equipment and Essential Tools
- Protects Against Loss, Theft, and Damage
How Much Does Tools & Equipment Insurance Cost?
- Value of Tools and Equipment: Higher-value items, such as heavy machinery, will increase the cost of coverage.
- Frequency of Use and Job Site Locations: More frequent use or high-risk job sites may raise your premium.
- Coverage Limits and Deductible: Choosing higher limits and lower deductibles increases premiums.
