Machinery Breakdown

Sudden internal failure of plant in operation, at rest or under overhaul, including operator error

Machinery breakdown covers sudden and unforeseen internal damage to plant in operation, at rest, or during cleaning and overhaul. It responds to causes a property policy deliberately leaves out.

  • Electrical and mechanical failure, short circuit and vibration
  • Operator error, and defects in casting, material or workmanship
  • Repair or replacement on an indemnity or reinstatement basis, as agreed
  • Optional extension to loss of profits following breakdown

Gradual wear, corrosion, tools that need regular replacement, and faults under manufacturer warranty are excluded. Machines are scheduled individually with capacity, year and value.

How it works

From enquiry to cover

1
We map the risk

A short conversation about what you do and what you own, so the cover matches reality.

2
We go to the market

We compare wording and limits across insurers, not the premium alone.

3
You choose, we place

We explain the differences in plain terms, then place the policy you pick.

4
We run the claim

If something happens, the file is ours to follow through to settlement.
