Specialist Insurance for Window Cleaners and Window Cleaning Businesses
At Alexander Swan, we understand that window cleaning isn’t just a job; it’s your livelihood. You work hard every day, often at height and in all weathers, to keep your customers happy and your business running smoothly. But when things go wrong, the right window cleaner insurance can make all the difference.
With more than 20 years of experience in arranging specialist insurance for window cleaners and window cleaning businesses, we know exactly what cover you need, and what you don’t. Whether you’re a self-employed window cleaner, part of a small team, or running a larger window cleaning company, our expert brokers will help you create a policy that gives you complete peace of mind.
Top Tips for Choosing the Right Window Cleaner Insurance
- Avoid cheap, generic policies. They might look appealing at first, but often fail to provide enough protection for specialist tools and equipment like water-fed poles or van-mounted systems.
- Personalise your cover. Every business is different. A tailored policy ensures you’re fully protected without paying for cover you don’t need.
- Plan for downtime. If your van is stolen or written off, does your policy include a like-for-like replacement with reach and wash equipment? Having this in place keeps your business moving.
- Work with an experienced broker. An independent insurance broker like Alexander Swan can compare options from multiple insurers to find the best deal for your specific needs.
Our Window Cleaning Insurance Cover Can Include:
Window Cleaning Vehicles
Your water-fed pole system is one of your most valuable assets. We can make sure it’s covered, whether it’s stored in your van, garage, or on-site, protecting you against theft or accidental damage.
Water Fed Pole System
Your water-fed pole system is one of your most valuable assets. We can make sure it’s covered, whether it’s stored in your van, garage, or on-site, protecting you against theft or accidental damage.
Public Liability Insurance
One of the most important types of cover for any tradesperson. Public liability insurance protects you if a customer, member of the public, or their property is accidentally injured or damaged while you’re working.
Personal Accident Cover
Accidents can happen at any time, especially when working at height. This cover provides financial protection if you’re injured and unable to work, helping you maintain an income while you recover.
Employers’ Liability Insurance
If you employ anyone, even on a part-time or casual basis, employers’ liability insurance is a legal requirement. It covers you against claims made by employees who suffer an injury or illness while working for you.
Cyber Insurance
Protect your business against losses from cybercrime and ensure you are able to cover costs such as data breach compensation.
