Car washes we insure

Three operational archetypes, three different risk profiles.

We place specialty insurance for self-service, in-bay automatic, and tunnel car washes. Each archetype is underwritten differently — different exposure profile, different equipment value concentration, different claims pattern, different carrier appetite.

Self-Service Car Wash Insurance

Insurance for coin- and credit-card-operated self-service bays — unattended high-pressure wands, foamers, and vacuum stations. Lower garagekeepers exposure than tunnel or IBA, but elevated after-hours crime and slip-and-fall frequency.

Automatic / In-Bay Automatic Insurance

Single-bay or multi-bay friction and touchless IBA systems where customers drive in, pay, and let the equipment do the work. Garagekeepers is the signature line; equipment-breakdown sits right behind it.

Tunnel Car Wash Insurance

Full-service and express exterior conveyor tunnels — the highest equipment count, employee count, claims frequency, and revenue concentration in the class. Membership-revenue economics change the business-income calculation after a loss.
