Business insurance

Insurance for Hydraulics Specialists

Hydraulics carries the risk of high-pressure systems failing on heavy machinery. A reseal or pump rebuild that fails under load can injure an operator, damage an expensive machine or cause a serious incident, so product and faulty-workmanship exposure sits at the centre of your cover. Public liability protects against injury and damage in the workshop and on customer sites, contents and tool cover protects your test gear and stock, and workers' compensation applies once you have techs on the books. With many policies renewing around 30 June, review your cover before the new financial year.

Common questions

Hydraulics Specialists — insurance questions

Do I need cover for the rebuilds I send out?

Yes. Product and faulty-workmanship exposure is central — a cylinder or pump that fails under pressure can cause real damage or harm well after it leaves your bay. Make sure your repair work, not just your premises, is covered.

When should I review my premium?

Many small-business policies renew around 30 June, so review cover in May or June. Cockatoo can help match you to a broker who understands hydraulic and heavy-machinery repair risk rather than treating you as a generic workshop.
