Why Do Window Cleaners Need Specialist Insurance?

Window cleaning might seem straightforward, but it’s a profession fraught with potential hazards. From working at heights to handling delicate glass and potentially harmful cleaning chemicals, window cleaners face a variety of risks that generic insurance policies might not adequately cover.

Consider these scenarios:

  • You accidentally damage an expensive pane of glass while cleaning a high-rise office building.
  • A passerby slips on water that’s dripped from your cleaning equipment onto the pavement.
  • Your cleaning equipment is stolen from your van overnight.

Without proper insurance, any of these situations could lead to significant financial losses or even legal troubles for your business. That’s why specialist window cleaning insurance is essential. It provides tailored protection against the specific risks associated with your profession, ensuring you’re covered for a wide range of potential incidents.

Please note that Cleaner Saver policies cover window cleaners using the water-fed pole method.

What Does Cleaner Saver’s Window Cleaning Insurance Cover?

At Cleaner Saver, we offer a comprehensive insurance package designed specifically for window cleaning professionals. Our policies can be customised to suit your individual needs, whether you’re a sole trader or managing a team of cleaners. Here’s an overview of the key coverages we provide:

Public Liability Insurance

Public liability insurance is the cornerstone of any window cleaner’s insurance policy. It protects you if a member of the public or a client makes a claim against you for injury or property damage caused by your work. Our public liability cover starts from £1 million, with options to increase up to £5 million for larger contracts or high-risk environments.

Employers’ Liability Insurance

If you employ staff, even on a casual or temporary basis, employers’ liability insurance is a legal requirement in the UK. This cover protects your business if an employee becomes ill or injured due to their work. We provide £10 million employers’ liability cover as standard, ensuring you’re fully compliant with UK regulations.

Tools and Equipment Insurance

Your cleaning equipment is essential to your business. Our tools insurance covers the cost of replacing or repairing your equipment if it’s lost, stolen, or damaged. This includes:

  • Ladders and access equipment
  • Water-fed pole systems
  • Squeegees and other hand tools
  • Pressure washers
  • Personal protective equipment (PPE)

Personal Accident Insurance

As a self-employed window cleaner or small business owner, your income depends on your ability to work. Personal accident insurance provides financial support if you’re unable to work due to an accident, helping to cover loss of income and medical expenses.

Product Liability Insurance

Product liability insurance offers protection if a client suffers injury or property damage because of a product you’ve used or supplied. This is particularly important for window cleaners who use various cleaning agents and chemicals.

Window Cleaner’s Public Liability Insurance

Working as a window cleaner can be a pretty full on job, but when you’re running your own window cleaning business, there are a lot of other additional stresses to take into consideration – the most important of which being, purchasing your insurance. However, often trying to navigate the maze of insurance terms can leave you feeling a lot more confused than when you started. Fortunately, there’s only one truly important insurance term you need to wrap your head around, and that’s public liability insurance.

Although it can seem confusing, the best way to think of public liability insurance is that it acts as the foundation of your window cleaning insurance policy, through which the various covers and elements come together. Covering injury to third parties and damage to their property, it covers both clients and members of the public to ensure you have thorough and complete insurance protection. It covers for things like accidental damage to a client’s vehicle, or a member of the public tripping over your tools while you’re unloading them from your van, and it’s vital for ensuring the health of your business.
