Common Janitorial and Cleaning Business Exposures
Potential claims can include slips and falls, accidental damage to customer property, employee injuries, theft allegations, vehicle accidents and losses involving business equipment. The type of customers you serve—offices, retail locations, apartments, medical offices or residential homes—can affect underwriting and coverage needs.
Insurance for Contract Cleaning Work
Commercial customers may require certificates of insurance, additional insured status or specific liability limits before a cleaning company can begin work.
