What to compare
- 01
What counts as a breakdown
The type of mechanical or electrical failure the policy addresses.
- 02
Wear and maintenance
How wear, deterioration and maintenance-related conditions are treated.
- 03
Repair versus replacement valuation
How costs are valued and any conditions on spending or replacement.
- 04
Limits and deductibles
Each limit and deductible, including any time-based deductible for interruption losses.
- 05
Downtime and spoilage
Whether the quote covers income lost while machines are down and stock that spoils after a failure.
- 06
Utility interruption
Whether the quote addresses the loss of an essential service your operation depends on.
- 07
Location and ownership
Which locations are scheduled, who owns the equipment and whether equipment used away from your premises is included.
Differences to watch for
- 01
Maintenance-related conditions
A quote may treat a failure that traces to maintenance differently from a sudden one.
- 02
Time-based deductibles
Interruption losses may not begin until a stated period has passed, which matters if your repairs are quick or slow.
- 03
Travelling equipment
Machinery that moves between jobs may fit inland marine coverage better. Location and cause of damage are separate questions.
- 04
Spoilage assumed
Stock that spoils after a failure may not be included. Identify what is vulnerable and ask each quote.

Common questions
How is breakdown different from property insurance?
Breakdown addresses mechanical and electrical failure of covered machinery. Spot shows how each quote draws that line.
Do I need inland marine too?
If equipment travels between sites, compare it. Spot flags where a quote leaves that gap.
Do I have to change brokers?
No. Spot sits alongside your broker and takes no commissions on premiums. You can switch brokers if you ever want to.
What should I tell Spot about my equipment?
Maintenance history, spares, backup equipment, repair lead times and how you could keep operating.
