Title: Insurance/ any hints and tips
Post by: Feather Dusters on February 18, 2008, 02:23:15 pm

Hi

I'm new to this so excuse me if I may sound a little stupid.  I've just started up a small cleaning business, small being I only have one person at the moment.  I may have another couple but I'm awaiting them to come back to me.  At the moment I work full time in London so trying to shuffle the cleaning around my full time job until I get a big enough round to leave boring London and become my own boss.  My company is called Feather Dusters and I would ideally like some hints and tips as to company insurance? Is this something I need at the moment given I'm just starting out?

Any replies with any other hints and tips would be good.

Cheri

Hi
I would say you need public liability insurance and when you take on staff you will need employers liability insurance.  I currently get mine from Zurich who do offer a good rate.
Hope this helps
