If I spill something on my mixing desk am I insured?

Yes. In fact, we recognise that this is the most crucial piece of equipment at your studio – so you can rent a replacement desk while yours is getting fixed.

Is theft from my recording studio covered?

We offer full theft cover, so as long as you contact us immediately we should be able to recompense the full-insured value of your item (less policy excess). This includes vintage instruments; where most insurance is based on replacing old items with new, professionally valued vintage items can be insured for their full amount.

Music studio insurance in detail

Our full risk policy covers all contents, instruments, liabilities, and recording studio equipment. Some of the key features are:

Full theft

Covers the loss of studio equipment due to theft. For instance, if someone breaks into your studio and steals microphones or computers, you're covered.

Loss of data

This covers the loss of recorded material due to issues like hard drive failure or accidental deletion. It's crucial for studios where the loss of recordings can mean significant financial and reputational damage.

Accidental damage

Protection if your studio equipment is accidentally damaged. Say, if a mixer falls and breaks or a guitar gets accidentally smashed during a session, this insurance helps cover the repair or replacement costs.

Cover for equipment while away from the premises

This extends the insurance cover to your equipment when it's taken off-site, like for external recordings, gigs, or if it's stored in a vehicle. It's essential for studios that do location recording or live sound services.

Employers' and public liabilities

Employers' liability insurance is mandatory if you have employees; it covers claims from employees who get injured or ill because of their work. Public liability insurance covers claims from clients or visitors who might get injured or have their property damaged at your studio.

Cover for hire of equipment or premises following a claim to keep you operational

If your studio is damaged and can't be used, or if your equipment is being repaired or replaced due to a claim, this insurance helps cover the cost of hiring alternative equipment or premises. This ensures that your business can continue operating without significant downtime.
