Liability Insurance

I am a small business owner in Orlando Florida. We repair ALL kinds of equipment from forklifts to balers, compactors, tractors, trailers, construction equipment anything and everything really we also do mobile welding. I currently have 2 full time road tecks and a truck and trailer that is for delivery and pickup of equipment. I have one full time in my shop and one 2 in my office. I Need help finding liability insurance that not 5000 a year! I have called many places around here and they say i am a specialty insurance and many of them have no companies that will insure me. Any advice??

The problem is insurance companies don't like to hear things like forklift repair, propane fuel systems, and welding. If possible, don't go into too many details when describing. If that price includes vehicles that's not bad at all.

I'm a sole proprietor in PA & have been with Erie for many years. Rates are reasonable-no problems with them thus far.
