About This Cover
Plant & equipment insurance - what it covers and why it matters
Plant and equipment insurance covers the machinery, tools and gear your business needs to earn. If it's damaged, stolen or destroyed, the insurer funds the repair or replacement instead of you.
The real question is what your policy excludes. Age limits, dry hire, gear working underground - the fine print is where claims die. We read it before you sign, and if a cheaper policy covers you just as well, we'll say so.
What's Included
What's covered - standard inclusions for plant & equipment policies
Accidental Damage
Broken on site, in transit or in storage - the policy funds repair or replacement.
Malicious Damage
Someone deliberately damages your gear? The insurer pays, not you.
External Impacts
Storm, hail, flood, falling objects - the cost of putting it right is covered.
Fire & Theft
A fire or a machine that vanishes overnight doesn't come out of your pocket.
Who Needs This

Transport & Logistics
Cranes, forklifts and loading gear that can't sit idle while a claim drags on.
Events & AV Crews
