Are you a self-employed cleaner, or do you run a cleaning business focused on domestic properties? Cleaner Saver offers tailored insurance cover for cleaners and cleaning companies in the domestic cleaning sector.

Our specialist insurance is designed to cover the unique risks associated with working in clients’ homes. We’ll ensure you’re protected against potential claims and unexpected incidents, giving you peace of mind as you carry out your cleaning work.

Why Do Domestic Cleaners Need Insurance?

As a domestic cleaner, you work in other people’s homes, handling their possessions and using cleaning chemicals. This exposes you to various risks, including accidental damage to property, injury to members of the public, or even claims arising from the use of cleaning products.

Having the right insurance coverage is crucial, whether you’re a sole trader or run a commercial cleaning company also specialising in domestic cleaning. Without it, you could be liable for costly legal fees and compensation payments, putting your business at risk.
