Third-Party Property Damage – Fire & Theft

What’s at risk?

If you’re using your car for work, you’ll likely be on the road more than the average person, and should protect your vehicle from any potential risks or accidental damage. Whether you’re a single driver, have a fleet of vehicles, or run a courier service, you need to cover yourself.

Here are some risks you need to be aware of:

Accidents & Collisions

Commercial vehicles are on the road more frequently than personal vehicles, increasing the likelihood of accidents and collisions. Commercial motor insurance covers the cost of repairing or replacing your vehicles and may also include coverage for bodily injury and property damage liability to others involved in the accident.

Theft & Vandalism

Commercial vehicles can be targets for theft and vandalism. Insurance can help cover the cost of replacing stolen vehicles or repairing damages resulting from theft or acts of vandalism.

Fire Damage

Commercial vehicles are at risk of fire damage, whether from accidents, arson, or other causes. Commercial motor insurance typically includes coverage for fire-related damages to your vehicles.

Third-Party Liability

When your business vehicles are involved in accidents that cause damage to other people’s property or result in injuries to third parties, you may be held liable. Commercial motor insurance often includes coverage for third-party property damage and bodily injury liability to protect your business from legal and financial consequences.

Need to make a claim?

Don’t worry – we’re here to help. Follow these steps to ensure a smooth claims process.

1. Gather information

Collect your essential information, including your policy number, insurer’s name, and agent’s contact. Be ready to describe the incident type, damage or loss, how it occurred, any witness, and any additional documentation or photos if available.

2. File your claim

To file a claim, contact your insurer and provide your policy number. The claims adjuster may request more information or documents, and some insurers offer online claim forms for quick submission.

3. Review and negotiate the claim

Once you file your claim, the insurer will respond within ten business days. If approved, expect a settlement offer that may be lower than anticipated. If denied, they’ll provide a reason, and you can appeal with legal guidance. Keep all related documents for future reference, and if your claim is approved, move forward accordingly.

4. Get the payment

After settling, expect a payment from the insurance company. For inquiries or claim status updates, contact your insurer or broker. In exceptional cases, like catastrophes, the process may extend up to 12 months, but you can still inquire about your claim’s status.
