Why Insurance Matters for Service & Repair Businesses?

Service and repair businesses work directly in customers’ homes, offices, and facilities which creates unique risks that can be costly without proper insurance. Even with strong safety practices, accidents and claims often come from the unexpected, and small issues can turn into large financial problems quickly.

You work on or inside customer property.
Accidental damage can lead to expensive claims or legal issues, especially when customers are emotionally or financially tied to their property.

Your tools and equipment are vital to your operations.
If your tools are stolen or damaged, your business may be unable to work for days. Insurance helps you get back up and running quickly.

You face increased liability exposure.
A small mistake like a loose connection, miswired outlet, or incomplete repair can lead to water damage, fire hazards, or safety issues.

Clients expect insured professionals.
Homeowners and commercial property managers often choose providers who can show proof of insurance, improving credibility and job opportunities.

Some insurance is legally required.
Depending on your trade and whether you have employees, certain coverages may be mandatory in California.
