Coverage overview

Start with the business, then build the policy.

Auto repair, body, collision, and related automotive operations have a distinct mix of customer vehicles, road tests, employees, equipment, property, and sometimes towing or storage. With approximately 15 years of commercial insurance experience, WOOT starts with the real workflow and renewal information—not a generic class code—to help organize a practical submission for available markets.

Coverage descriptions are general and do not replace policy language. Availability, eligibility, limits, exclusions, and pricing depend on underwriting and the issued policy.

WOOT asks about the work, property, people, contracts, vehicles, and current insurance so the application reflects the actual risk.

Ask Evan about your business

What is garage keepers coverage?

Garagekeepers can address certain covered damage to customer vehicles in the shop’s care, custody, or control. Limits should reflect the values and number of vehicles that may be on site, plus the selected coverage basis, deductible, exclusions, and policy terms.

How are garage liability and garagekeepers different?

Garage liability generally addresses covered liability from garage operations; garagekeepers focuses on certain covered damage to customer vehicles in the business’s care, custody, or control. Building, tools, equipment, and business property are generally separate property exposures.

What makes a repair or collision renewal easier to evaluate?

A useful renewal package usually explains repair and paint work, road-test and towing activity, employee roles and payroll, locations, customer-vehicle values, current policies, loss runs, and any material operational changes. Underwriting and issued policy terms determine what is available.
