Why Westminster Insurance

What does cleaners insurance cover?

Everything you need in one simple policy.

Professional Indemnity for Cleaners

Professional Indemnity insurance protects you if a client claims that your advice, service, or work caused them financial loss or reputational harm. Whether it's a mistake, oversight, or miscommunication, it covers legal costs and compensation if you're found to be at fault — helping you defend your reputation and your business.

Public Liability for Cleaners
