Bonded vs. Insured Cleaning Services in Tucson

A bond covers theft. Insurance covers damage and injuries. A cleaning company should carry both. Without both, you take on real risk every time a crew enters your home.

What a Bond Covers

A bond covers theft by a crew member. It does not cover broken items. It does not cover worker injuries. Ask for the bond number and the carrier name.

What Insurance Covers

Liability insurance pays if a cleaner breaks or damages your property. It also covers injuries that happen during the job. Look for at least $1 million in coverage.

Why You Need Both

A bond does not cover damage. Insurance does not cover theft. You need both. Ask any cleaning company to show proof of each before the first visit.

Questions to Ask Before You Hire

  • Ask if the company has a janitorial bond.
  • Ask for the liability insurance amount and carrier.
  • Arizona law requires workers' comp for businesses with employees.
  • Ask if workers' comp is current and active.
  • A good company will share proof of coverage right away.
  • If a company will not share documents, look elsewhere.

What This Means in a Tucson Home

Tucson homes often have tile, stone, and glass. These can break. If a cleaner breaks something, liability insurance pays for the repair. A bond alone would not cover that cost.

Arizona law requires workers' comp for cleaning companies with employees. If a cleaner is hurt in your home and the company has no coverage, you may face a claim. Always verify both before your first clean.
