Inland Marine Insurance for Plumbers

Shield your business from unexpectaved financial setbacks with tailored liability coverage.

Protect Your Tools & Equipment On the Move

As a plumber, your tools and equipment are your lifeline—and you don’t always leave them at the shop. Whether you’re traveling to a job site, storing gear in your work truck, or working in different locations, your valuable tools are constantly on the move. That’s where Inland Marine Insurance comes in.

We specialize in Inland Marine Insurance coverage for plumbing contractors, ensuring your equipment is protected—wherever the job takes you.

What Is Inland Marine Insurance?

Inland Marine Insurance is a type of coverage that protects property in transit or stored off-site. Unlike traditional property insurance that only covers items at your business location, inland marine covers tools, materials, and equipment while they’re:

  • Being transported to and from job sites

  • Stored in a trailer or van

  • Temporarily located at a customer’s property

  • Stored at a third-party location

Why Plumbers Need Inland Marine Insurance

Plumbing tools and machines are not only expensive—they’re also vulnerable to theft, damage, or loss during transport or on job sites. Inland Marine Insurance ensures that your investment is covered in situations where your general liability or property insurance may not apply.

What Does It Cover?

Our Inland Marine Insurance policies for plumbers typically cover:

  • Hand tools and power tools

  • Pipe cutters, threading machines, and hydro jetters

  • Diagnostic equipment

  • Materials and parts in transit

  • Job site storage units

  • Equipment rented or leased

Bonus Coverage Options:

    • Theft protection from job sites and vehicles

    • Coverage for accidental damage

    • Reimbursement for rented tools during repair or replacement

What Does Commercial Auto Insurance for Plumbers Cover?

Plumbing General Liability Insurance helps protect your business from third-party claims involving property damage, bodily injury, and related issues. One of the key advantages of this coverage is that it also includes legal defense costs—like attorney fees—if your business faces a lawsuit over a covered incident.

FAQ: What is Covered by General Liability Insurance?

No. General liability typically covers injuries and property damage, not tools or equipment in transit.

It’s usually affordable and customizable. You only pay for the value of the equipment you want to protect.

Inland marine policies can be extended to include rented or leased equipment.
