Title: Window cleaning insurance is it all?
Post by: Pristine Clean on March 24, 2009, 07:26:42 am

Our insurance is up for renewal for window cleaning, as well as the commercial cleaning as well, but my question is this

Is all window cleaning insurance only underwritten by AXA?

Thats what I have been informed by most of the insurance companies. It blooming expensive. But still they know you require it and charge the earth.

Are you just by yourself?

Do you have employees?

If you are by yourself and no employees then yes thats about the right price for you.

Have a look at this site:

http://www.simplybusiness.co.uk

We get our insurance through them; they're a broker and we get our insurance cheaply; but I'm guessing the policy that we have isn't good; you only get what you pay for at the end of the day.

But I've a couple of commercial accounts who require us to have public liability insurance; so we have it!
