Why Do Pressure Washers Need Insurance?

Pressure washing businesses face unique risks every day. For example, a client could trip and fall over your equipment and end up with medical bills. Or, your work might accidentally damage client property, resulting in repair costs. Business insurance for pressure washing is designed to protect you from potential insurance claims like these, so you can confidently focus on your work.

How Much Does Pressure Washing Insurance Cost?

Pressure washing business insurance starts at $39 per month. Your policy’s cost may change based on the size of your operation and any add-ons that you select — see what can affect your cleaning business insurance cost. But you can lock in savings of up to 12% by choosing annual coverage. Get a personalized quote for your business in under 5 minutes with our easy online application!

“Signing up was easy. It’ll give any client the comfort of knowing that you have coverage.”

Plus, it’s a good, affordable coverage that covers what I need. I definitely recommend it to people—including my son and those in other industries. I tell them to call Insurance Canopy and get covered, because it’s not overly expensive. When other people in the cleaning industry say they’re not insured, I say, “Why? It’s literally $39 per month.”

What Does Pressure Washing Insurance Include?

From damaged equipment to on-the-job injuries and data breaches, our coverage options are designed to protect your business in many different — but all-too-common — scenarios.

Take a closer look at what’s included in the base policy and how you can customize your coverage, as well as what is specifically excluded.

Included

General Liability Coverage

General liability insurance protects your business from third-party property damage and bodily injury claims. For instance, if high-pressure water accidentally cracks a client’s window or someone slips on a wet surface after a job, this coverage can help with things like medical bills, repair costs, and legal fees.

Keep in mind that it doesn’t cover work-related injuries sustained by you or your employees — it’s designed to protect your business from third-party claims.

Note: Our policy only covers pressure washing from the ground level and excludes cleaning the exterior of buildings or power washing if working from above the ground level.

Add-Ons

Tools and Equipment Coverage

Tools and equipment insurance, also known as inland marine, covers your valuable gear (like power washers, hoses, and surface cleaners) in cases of theft or accidental damage.

Workers Compensation Coverage

In the pressure washing business, injuries are a real possibility — from slipping on slick surfaces to pulling muscles when lifting heavy gear or even getting hurt by the high-pressure water stream. Workers compensation helps cover medical costs and lost wages when accidents occur on the job. 

Although most states require workers comp, it’s more than just a legal obligation. It demonstrates to your team that you’re invested in their safety and ready to assist if they get injured. Offering this protection is a smart strategy to keep your business running smoothly and your employees feeling secure.

Additional Insureds

It’s common for commercial clients, landlords, and other third parties to require you to add them to your policy as an additional insured before renting to you or hiring you. Insurance Canopy makes this easy – you can add additional insureds right from your dashboard.

Adding additional insureds to your policy extends your coverage to qualified third parties, protecting them from mishaps arising out of your work. If you’re pressure washing a client’s walkway and one of their customers slips and gets injured, they might name both you and your client in a claim. As an additional insured, your policy can also cover your client, since it arose out of your work.

Janitorial Bonds

Clients may also require you to be bonded as part of your contract. Janitorial bonds build client trust by providing financial protection if an employee is accused of theft. For example, if an employee steals tools from a client’s garage during a power washing job, the bond covers the cost of replacing the stolen items.

To protect your business against theft, it’s smart to pair general liability insurance with a janitorial bond. At Insurance Canopy, you can get a bond starting at just $131 a year!

Cyber Liability Coverage

Cyber liability insurance protects you from the fallout of data breaches, ransomware, and other digital threats. If your scheduling software is hacked, this coverage can help cover legal fees, business interruptions, data restoration costs, and more.

Commercial Auto Insurance

Whether you’re transporting equipment, hauling water tanks, or traveling between job sites, your vehicles are crucial to the success of your business. Commercial auto insurance is essential to protect your company vehicles in case of an accident while on the road.

This coverage can help cover vehicle damage, medical expenses, and liability claims. Personal auto insurance usually doesn’t cover business-related use, and in many states, commercial auto insurance is a legal requirement.
