Public Liability Insurance
Public liability insurance is the cornerstone of any cleaning business insurance policy. It protects you if a member of the public, such as a client or visitor, is injured or their property is damaged as a result of your cleaning work. For example, if a client slips on a wet floor you’ve just mopped, or you accidentally damage an expensive carpet while cleaning, public liability insurance can help cover the cost of compensation claims and legal fees.
Employers’ Liability Insurance?
If you employ anyone in your cleaning business, even on a part-time or casual basis, employers’ liability insurance is a legal requirement in the UK. It covers you if an employee becomes ill or injured as a result of working for you.
Equipment Insurance
As a house cleaner, your tools and equipment are essential to your work. Our business equipment insurance can cover the cost of replacing or repairing your cleaning equipment if it’s lost, stolen, or damaged. This includes items such as vacuum cleaners, mops, cleaning chemicals, and even your work vehicle if required.
Product Liability Insurance
Product liability insurance covers you if a product you supply, such as cleaning solutions or equipment, causes injury or damage to property. For example, if a cleaning product you’ve provided to a client causes a chemical burn or damages a surface, product liability insurance would help cover compensation claims and legal expenses.
This protection ensures that your business is shielded from any unforeseen issues arising from the products you use or supply.
Personal Accident Cover
Personal accident cover provides financial support if you or your employees suffer an injury and are unable to work due to an accident. This policy helps cover lost income, medical bills, and rehabilitation costs, ensuring that you can focus on recovery without the additional stress of lost earnings.
For self-employed cleaners or small businesses, personal accident cover offers vital protection when unforeseen injuries occur.
Legal Protection Insurance
Legal protection insurance assists with the costs of legal disputes related to your cleaning business. Whether you’re dealing with contract disagreements, employment disputes, or other legal matters, this cover helps manage the expense of legal representation and court fees.
Legal protection insurance ensures you have access to expert advice and financial support if you need to defend your business in court or resolve a dispute.
