When hiring a commercial cleaning company, it's easy to focus on price and services. However, one of the most critical questions you should ask is: "Are you insured?" The answer to this question can have significant financial and legal implications for your business. At Gloucestershire Cleaning Company, we are fully insured. ## Why Insurance is Non-Negotiable Hiring an uninsured or underinsured cleaning company is a significant risk.
