What does it cost?

The cost of your mechanic insurance depends on the specific type of work you do. For example, an auto mechanic who owns a garage and stores customer vehicles will have a different rate than a mobile mechanic who uses a work vehicle to travel to various locations.

Your coverage needs, number of employees and claims history are also considered when calculating your cost. Learn more about which factors affect your business insurance rate.

Basic auto repair business insurance:

Garage Liability

Auto repair shops need this coverage to protect from liabilities, such as damages caused by faulty work and customer slips and falls. It doesn’t cover your building or mechanic tools, so you’ll want to consider property and equipment insurance if you’re needing protection for these types of assets.

Garagekeepers Legal Liability

This coverage can help if you’re found responsible for the physical damage of a customer’s vehicle while it’s in your care, custody and control.

Other mechanic shop insurance you might need:

Commercial Auto

If you’re a mobile mechanic, or use vehicles for your business, you’ll need a commercial auto policy. We insurance vehicles common to auto repair businesses, such as pickups and tow trucks.

Workers’ Compensation

This policy protects if your employees become injured or ill while at work.

General Liability

Mobile mechanics typically don’t have business property, but still need basic liability protection in case they cause bodily injury or property damage in the course of their work.
