What Cleaning Business Coverages Do I Need?

Beyond protecting your physical assets, it’s also important to protect your cleaning or janitorial business against the possibility of financial loss from lawsuits or settlements. With this in mind, Tomins advises any cleaning busines owner to consider carrying general liability insurance.

Regardless of the unique characteristics of your restaurant operation, every owner should also carry a Business Owners Policy (BOP). It’s designed to protect your business’s buildings, property, and other business assets against unforeseen loss.

A Tomins cleaning business BOP typically includes these four coverages:

Cleaning Business General Liability Insurance: General liability (GL) insurance is an important coverage for all small businesses to carry, including cleaning businesses. General liability insurance can help cover the costs of damages from lawsuits filed due to injuries or property damage sustained as a result of your business operation.
Commercial Property Insurance for Cleaning Businesses: Commercial property insurance can help pay to replace or repair your cleaning business’s property, store, and equipment in the aftermath of a covered loss.
Business Income Insurance for Cleaning Businesses [LINK TBD]: This cleaning business insurance coverage can protect you from a loss of income resulting from an interruption of your business operations.
Commercial Auto: If your cleaning business has even one company-owned car, van, or truck, you should strongly to consider investing in commercial auto insurance. This coverage helps protect an owner against the risks involved with vehicles owned by their business.

You May Need Additional Coverage

Employment Practices Liability (EPLI): EPLI can protect your cleaning business against legal damages, court costs and other expenses related to improper termination or hiring, sexual harassment, and workplace discrimination.
