Cleaning seems low-risk, but you’re working around expensive furniture, fragile items, and client valuables every single day. One knocked-over vase, one spilled chemical on a carpet, or one employee slip-and-fall can cost you thousands. Without proper coverage, a single accident can wipe out your entire business.

One knocked-over vase, one spilled chemical on a carpet, or one employee slip-and-fall can cost you thousands. Without proper coverage, a single accident can wipe out your entire business.

An employee knocks over a $3,000 antique vase while dusting a shelf. Your general liability insurance for cleaning business covers the full replacement cost.
A worker uses the wrong cleaning solution on a client's marble floors, causing permanent etching. Cleaning liability insurance covers the floor restoration cost.

A cleaner slips on a wet floor they just mopped and breaks their wrist. House cleaning insurance covers all medical bills and lost wages through workers' comp.

Thieves break into your work van and steal $4,000 worth of vacuums, carpet wands, and cleaning supplies. Your cleaning business insurance policy covers the full replacement cost.
A complete commercial cleaning company insurance program typically includes several policies working together. We bundle them to save you money and eliminate dangerous coverage gaps that could leave you exposed in a client’s home.





Whether you’re doing residential house cleaning, commercial janitorial, or specialty carpet and window cleaning, we have a cleaning business insurance coverage program designed for your specific scope of work and risk profile, because a residential maid service and a window cleaning company need completely different coverage.
Weekly and bi-weekly home cleaning, deep cleaning, move-in/move-out cleaning, post-construction cleanup
Office building cleaning, retail store maintenance, warehouse sweeping, school and church cleaning
Steam cleaning, dry cleaning, stain removal, rug washing, furniture and mattress cleaning
Residential window washing, high-rise window cleaning, storefront glass, solar panel cleaning
House washing, driveway and sidewalk cleaning, deck and fence restoration, graffiti removal
New home final cleanup, renovation dust removal, construction site debris, builder turnover clean
Every state has different requirements for cleaning business licensing and insurance minimums. We help you stay compliant with state laws and help you win contracts that require cleaning business insurance requirements like additional insured endorsements and certificates of insurance.
Cleaning business insurance cost depends on your annual revenue, number of employees, type of cleaning work, and claims history. Residential house cleaners pay less than commercial janitorial or window cleaning companies.
