Frequently asked questions
Most cleaning businesses start with public liability insurance, which covers injury to other people and damage to their property. If you employ anyone, employers' liability insurance is usually a legal requirement. Many cleaners also add loss of keys cover, cover for damage to the property they are working on, and tools and equipment insurance.
