Public Liability for mechanics and the motor trade

About This Cover

Public Liability insurance is the cornerstone of any motor trade business. Whether you are servicing vehicles in your workshop, carrying out roadside repairs, or working on-site at a customer's location, accidents can happen, and when they do the financial and legal consequences can be serious.

Public Liability cover protects your business against claims made by third parties for bodily injury or property damage that arises from your business activities. From a customer slipping on oil in your workshop to accidental damage to a vehicle or surrounding property, cover is built to respond quickly.

We understand the exposures that mechanics and automotive tradespeople face, which is why cover is structured around the risks of your industry, not adapted from a generic commercial policy.

What's Included

  • Third-party bodily injury and property damage claims
  • Legal defence costs, included within your policy limit
  • Cover for incidents on your premises and at offsite locations
  • Products liability for parts and components supplied and fitted
  • Cover for employees acting in the course of their duties
