Markel offers coverage specifically designed for janitorial services.

Your janitorial business is exposed to a variety of risks that could result in a lawsuit. If you don't have the proper insurance, you could be responsible for paying these expenses out-of-pocket, which could put you out of business.

Our insurance for janitorial services also includes a professional claims team that handles your claim promptly, a loss prevention team with knowledge of your industry to help reduce claims and payment options to meet every budget. 

Why is insurance for janitorial services important?

You‘ve probably spent more than one sleepless night thinking about the many ways your business could get sued for damaging property or causing an injury. Plus, you have worries about your own property and vehicles, including your property that is stored in someone else's office or building.

That’s why you need a policy specifically written for janitorial companies by people with experience working with others in your field. You can design a policy that is suited to your business needs.
