You’d be crazy not to !!!
If you work as a Blast Cleaning, even a small mishap while using vacuums, mops and cleaning chemicals can lead to a costly claim. Public liability insurance is designed to help with third‑party injury or damage claims, including legal costs.
Why it matters: one incident involving residents can mean compensation, repair bills and legal costs — public liability insurance is designed to help with those outcomes.
Key cover areas
- Third‑party injury claims arising from accidents connected to your work.
- Accidental property damage caused during your work (including at client premises).
- Legal defence costs and associated expenses (subject to policy terms).
- Slip risks around wet floors, signage and corded equipment.
- Claims linked to your operations while working at premises you don’t own.
Typical scenarios for Blast Cleaning
Example: while working in homes, offices and communal areas, a piece of cleaning agents or a tool is dropped and damages a client’s property. The customer asks you to pay for repairs and makes a formal claim.
- Injury example: A customer slips on a freshly mopped floor where signage wasn’t clear.
- Damage example: High‑pressure washing etches brickwork or forces water behind render.
- Another common scenario: A client has a minor reaction after contact with cleaning residue on a surface.
How much cover do you need?
Typical limits range from £1m to £10m. If you work on commercial sites or for councils/venues, higher limits (often £5m+) are commonly requested.
Useful add‑ons for Blast Cleaning
- Goods In Trust (For Clients’ Items) — cover for the job in progress, materials, plant or kit (depending on the cover type).
- Treatment Risks Extension (If Applicable) — useful if you rely on specialist equipment to work.
- Product liability — worth considering if you sell or supply products as part of your service.
- Employers’ liability — If anyone works under your direction, EL insurance (employers’ liability) can be important in addition to public liability cover.
