    Three questions to ask about your coverage

    1. What could go wrong? For coin laundries and drycleaners, it’s often wet floors, machine-related injuries and damaged customer garments. Customers spend time on your premises while their loads run, so slip and fall claims are a real concern.

    2. Do I need GL or a BOP? General liability handles third-party bodily injury, property damage and (for most classes) personal and advertising injury, with per-occurrence limits of $300K, $500K, $1M or $2M. A BOP adds property and business income protection. A BOP can cover washers, dryers, fixtures and business income after a covered loss.

    3. Will my business qualify? Eligibility depends on location count (one per policy), loss history and size limits, which we check during the quote. Coterie generally accepts businesses with up to $10M in revenue and 50 employees, one location per policy, limited losses in the past five years and no prior cancellations. Startups and home-based businesses can qualify too.

    Where this class ranks with Coterie

    Coin-Operated Laundries and Drycleaners is #9 on Coterie’s Top 100 classes list (December 2025), so it’s one of the business types Coterie writes most often.

    Three questions to ask about your coverage

    1. What could go wrong? For landscaping services, it’s often flying debris from mowers, damaged sprinkler lines, and property damage to a client’s yard or vehicle. Your crews are on client property every day, and HOAs and property managers ask for certificates.

    2. Do I need GL or a BOP? General liability handles third-party bodily injury, property damage and (for most classes) personal and advertising injury, with per-occurrence limits of $300K, $500K, $1M or $2M. A BOP adds property and business income protection. A BOP can protect office property, and contractor equipment limits can be increased.

    3. Will my business qualify? Tree removal or stump grinding is excluded, as is tree trimming or snowplowing that’s more than half of operations, and snowplowing completed operations isn’t covered. Coterie generally accepts businesses with up to $10M in revenue and 50 employees, one location per policy, limited losses in the past five years and no prior cancellations. Startups and home-based businesses can qualify too.

    Three questions to ask about your coverage

    1. What could go wrong? For beer, wine and liquor stores, it’s often broken bottles, slippery floors, stock falling from tall shelves and customer injuries. Retail foot traffic plus breakable glass makes premises liability the main exposure.

    2. Do I need GL or a BOP? General liability handles third-party bodily injury, property damage and (for most classes) personal and advertising injury, with per-occurrence limits of $300K, $500K, $1M or $2M. A BOP adds property and business income protection. A BOP protects inventory and fixtures and adds business income; liquor liability is an available coverage.

    3. Will my business qualify? When liquor liability is selected, the $2M/$4M liability limits aren’t available. Final eligibility is confirmed during underwriting. Coterie generally accepts businesses with up to $10M in revenue and 50 employees, one location per policy, limited losses in the past five years and no prior cancellations.

    3. Will my business qualify?

    Coverage outline

    What general liability does for a barbershop

    General liability helps pay for claims that your business injured someone who isn't your employee or damaged someone else's property, including the cost of defending those claims. Most policies also include personal and advertising injury (such as libel or copyright claims from your advertising) and small medical-payment claims regardless of fault. For salons and barbershops this typically means a client slipping in the shop or damage to a client's belongings. Injury caused by the service itself, such as a reaction to a chemical treatment, is a professional exposure that may need professional liability coverage, which some markets offer alongside general liability. A business owner's policy can add coverage for chairs, equipment and products.

    Common claims for a barbershop

    Slips and falls

    Hair on the floor, a wet spot by the shampoo bowl or a cord across the walkway, and a client or a walk-in gets hurt.

    Client injury in the chair

    A nick from a straight razor or a burn from a hot towel or styling tool turns into a claim.

    Damage to a client's property

    A dropped bottle of dye ruins a client's coat, phone or bag.

    Products you sell

    Pomades, beard oils and shampoos on your retail shelf can lead to a claim after the sale.

    Advertising injury

    A social post or ad accidentally uses someone else's photo or makes a claim about a competitor.

    What it usually doesn’t cover, and what to pair it with

    Your own staff getting hurtWorkers' compensation
    Your chairs, clippers, mirrors and build-outA business owner's policy (BOP) or property coverage
    A claim that your service or advice was done wrongProfessional liability (some GL policies exclude professional services of barbers and stylists, so ask)
    Hacked booking system or card dataCyber coverage

    Chair and booth rental. Do you rent chairs or booths? Many shop owners ask each booth renter to carry their own general liability and to list the shop as an additional insured. If you rent a booth, the shop's policy usually does not cover you. Tell us which side you're on and we'll quote it the right way.

    Extra services? If your shop also offers tattooing, permanent makeup, injections or fillers, laser or cryotherapy, tanning beds, or body piercing, tell us up front. Those services usually need a different market or extra coverage.

    Questions

    Barber general liability FAQ

    Does general liability cover a client who is cut during a shave?

    General liability is built for third-party bodily injury, but some policies exclude injuries that come from the professional service itself. That is where professional liability for barbers can matter. We check how each option handles it before you buy.

    Do booth renters need their own policy?

    Usually yes. A shop's policy typically protects the shop, not an independent booth renter. Many shops ask renters for their own certificate of insurance listing the shop as an additional insured.

    Does general liability cover my clippers and chairs?

    No. General liability covers claims from other people. Your own equipment and build-out are covered by property coverage or a business owner's policy (BOP).

    Which carriers write barber general liability in Alabama?

    Barbershops can be quoted and bound through Coterie, plus additional carriers and specialty markets through AIB's 35+ carrier appointments. AIB will confirm availability for your Alabama business at quote.

    What general liability does for a remodeling business

    General liability helps pay for claims that your business injured someone who isn't your employee or damaged someone else's property, including the cost of defending those claims. Most policies also include personal and advertising injury (such as libel or copyright claims from your advertising) and small medical-payment claims regardless of fault. Remodelers and general contractors face claims from homeowners, neighbors and the public at the job site. General contractors should collect certificates of insurance from subcontractors, because a sub's mistakes can lead to claims against the GC. Products-completed operations coverage responds when injury or damage shows up after a job is finished. Customers and general contractors often ask for a certificate of insurance and may ask to be named as an additional insured. General liability does not cover injuries to your own employees (workers' compensation), your vehicles (commercial auto), your tools and equipment (inland marine) or the cost of redoing your own work.

    Common claims for a remodeling business

    Damage to the client's home

    A saw slips through a finished countertop, a dropped beam cracks tile, or dust and debris ruin flooring in the next room.

    Injuries at the job site

    A homeowner, a neighbor's child or a delivery driver trips over open flooring, cords or a stack of lumber.

    Subcontractor mistakes

    A sub's error floods a bathroom or damages a wall, and the homeowner looks to you as the contractor in charge.

    Problems after the job is done

    A railing, cabinet or fixture you installed fails months later and someone is hurt; completed-operations coverage responds.

    Advertising injury

    A yard sign, website or social post uses a photo you didn't have rights to or makes a claim about a competitor.

    What it usually doesn’t cover, and what to pair it with

    GapCoverage that fills it
    Your own crew getting hurtWorkers' compensation
    Your tools, trailers and equipmentInland marine (contractors equipment) coverage
    Accidents in your work truckCommercial auto
    The cost to redo your own faulty workGenerally not covered by general liability, though resulting damage to other property may be

    Subcontractors. Collect a certificate of insurance from every sub before they start. A sub's mistake can become your claim, and on many GL policies an audit can add premium for uninsured subs.

    New construction or commercial projects? Small residential remodeling and repair is the easiest fit for most small-business markets. Ground-up new construction, commercial general contracting and larger projects usually go to different markets, so tell us the work you actually do.

    Questions

    Remodeler and general contractor general liability FAQ

    Do I need to add the homeowner or GC as an additional insured?

    Often, yes. Many contracts ask for additional insured status, and some also ask for a waiver of subrogation or primary and non-contributory wording. Those have to be on the policy, not just typed on the certificate, so send us the contract before you sign.

    Does general liability pay to fix my own faulty work?

    Generally no. General liability is for injury and damage to other people's property. The cost to redo your own work is usually excluded, though resulting damage to other property may be covered.

    Do my subcontractors need their own insurance?

    Yes, you should require it. Ask every sub for a current certificate before they start. Uninsured subs can add premium at audit and leave you holding their claims.

    Does general liability cover my tools?

    No. Tools, trailers and equipment are covered by inland marine (contractors equipment) coverage. AIB can quote it alongside your general liability.

Most policies also include personal and advertising injury (such as libel or copyright claims from your advertising) and small medical-payment claims regardless of fault.

    Common claims for an electrical contractor

    Fire traced to your work

    A connection you made overheats months later and a fire damages the home or business; completed-operations coverage responds.

    Damage while you work

    Cutting into drywall, drilling through a pipe or fishing wire behind finished surfaces damages the client's property.

    Shock or injury to others

    A customer, tenant or another trade on site is shocked or hurt near an open panel or live circuit.

    Questions

    Electrician general liability FAQ

    Does general liability cover a fire caused by my wiring?

    If a fire from your completed work damages someone else's property or injures someone, that is the kind of claim products-completed operations coverage is built for. Policy wording controls, so we review it with you.

    Do GCs require electricians to carry general liability?

    Most do. Expect to provide a certificate before you start, often naming the GC as an additional insured. Tell us who is asking and we'll match what their contract requires.

    Is my service van covered by general liability?

    No. Accidents in your van or truck are covered by commercial auto. If employees drive their own cars for work, ask about hired and non-owned auto.

    Does general liability cover my tools and materials?

    No. Tools, meters and materials on the job or in your van are covered by inland marine (contractors equipment) coverage.

    What general liability does for a plumbing business

    General liability helps pay for claims that your business injured someone who isn't your employee or damaged someone else's property, including the cost of defending those claims. Most policies also include personal and advertising injury (such as libel or copyright claims from your advertising) and small medical-payment claims regardless of fault. For plumbers, a typical claim is water damage to a customer's home or building from a leak at a fitting or fixture you installed or repaired. Products-completed operations coverage responds when injury or damage shows up after a job is finished. Customers and general contractors often ask for a certificate of insurance and may ask to be named as an additional insured. General liability does not cover injuries to your own employees (workers' compensation), your vehicles (commercial auto), your tools and equipment (inland marine) or the cost of redoing your own work.

    Common claims for a plumbing business

    Water damage

    A fitting or fixture you installed or repaired leaks and soaks floors, cabinets and ceilings below.

    Leaks that show up later

    A slow leak behind a wall is found months after the job; completed-operations coverage responds to the resulting damage.

    Damage while you work

    Opening a wall or floor to reach a line damages tile, finishes or a neighbor's unit.

    Trips and falls on the job

    A customer trips over tools, hoses or an open access panel.

    Advertising injury

    An ad or website uses someone else's photo or makes a claim about a competitor.

    What it usually doesn’t cover, and what to pair it with

    GapCoverage that fills it
    Your own crew getting hurtWorkers' compensation
    Your tools, cameras and jettersInland marine (contractors equipment) coverage
    Accidents in your service vanCommercial auto
    Pollution, such as sewage or contaminated water cleanupContractors pollution liability, where available (excluded on most GL forms)

    Water damage is the big one. Most plumbing claims are about water damage to someone else's property. Make sure the policy's completed-operations coverage fits the work you do, and keep job records.

    Sewer, septic or gas work? Tell us up front about sewer main, septic, gas line, boiler or new-construction work. Some markets limit those operations, and pollution is excluded on most GL forms.

    Questions

    Plumber general liability FAQ

    Does general liability cover water damage from a leak I caused?

    Water damage to someone else's property from your work is a classic general liability claim, including leaks that show up after the job through completed-operations coverage. The cost to redo your own work is generally not covered.

    Is sewage backup or contamination covered?

    Often not. Most GL forms exclude pollution, and some treat sewage as pollution. Contractors pollution liability can fill that gap where available.

    Do property managers require plumbers to carry insurance?

    Usually. Expect to provide a certificate, often naming the property manager or owner as an additional insured, before you get on the vendor list.

    Does general liability cover my drain camera and tools?

    No. Your tools and equipment are covered by inland marine (contractors equipment) coverage.

    What general liability does for a painting business

    General liability helps pay for claims that your business injured someone who isn't your employee or damaged someone else's property, including the cost of defending those claims. Most policies also include personal and advertising injury (such as libel or copyright claims from your advertising) and small medical-payment claims regardless of fault. For painters, common claims include paint spills or overspray on a customer's floors, furniture or vehicles, and ladders or drop cloths that trip someone. Products-completed operations coverage responds when injury or damage shows up after a job is finished. Customers and general contractors often ask for a certificate of insurance and may ask to be named as an additional insured. General liability does not cover injuries to your own employees (workers' compensation), your vehicles (commercial auto), your tools and equipment (inland marine) or the cost of redoing your own work.

    Common claims for a painting business

    Spills and overspray

    Paint lands on a customer's hardwood, furniture, countertops or a car parked in the driveway.

    Ladder and scaffold accidents

    A ladder tips into a window or a passerby is hurt by falling equipment.

    Trips over drop cloths and cans

    A homeowner or visitor slips on a drop cloth or trips over a paint can.

    Problems after the job

    A finish you applied causes damage or injury after you've left; completed-operations coverage responds.

    Advertising injury

    A website or social post uses a photo you didn't have rights to or makes a claim about a competitor.

    Interior, exterior or both? Tell us the mix. Interior residential repaint work is the easiest fit for most small-business markets, while tall exterior work, industrial coatings and large commercial jobs can need different markets.

    Lead paint. If you work on older homes, lead-safe work practices matter, and lead-related claims are excluded on most GL forms. Ask us about pollution coverage options.

    What general liability does for a cleaning company

    General liability helps pay for claims that your business injured someone who isn't your employee or damaged someone else's property, including the cost of defending those claims. Most policies also include personal and advertising injury (such as libel or copyright claims from your advertising) and small medical-payment claims regardless of fault. For cleaning companies, typical claims are a customer or visitor slipping on a freshly mopped floor and damage to a client's property while cleaning. Theft by an employee at a client site is not a general liability claim; a janitorial bond or crime coverage handles that. Damage to property in your care may be limited, so ask about options. General liability does not cover injuries to your own employees (workers' compensation) or your vehicles (commercial auto).

    Common claims for a cleaning company

    Slips on wet floors

    A client's employee or customer slips on a freshly mopped floor.

    Damage to client property

    A cleaning product stains carpet or etches stone, or a crew member knocks over equipment or decor.

    Trips over equipment

    Cords from a buffer or vacuum trip someone in a hallway or lobby.

    Advertising injury

    A flyer or website uses someone else's photo or makes a claim about a competitor.

    Bonding. Many commercial clients ask for a janitorial bond. A bond or crime coverage responds to theft by an employee at a client's site; general liability does not.

    Janitorial and commercial cleaning general liability FAQ

    Does general liability cover theft by one of my cleaners?

    No. Theft by an employee is handled by a janitorial bond or crime coverage, not general liability. Many commercial clients ask for both.

    Does general liability cover a slip on a floor we just mopped?

    Injury to a client, their employee or a visitor from your work, like a slip on a wet floor, is the kind of claim general liability is built for.

    What if we damage a client's floors or furniture?

    Damage you cause to a client's property is generally a GL claim, but property in your care may be limited on some policies. We check how each option handles it.

    Do office and property managers require cleaning companies to be insured?

    Almost always. Expect to provide a certificate, often naming the client as an additional insured, and sometimes proof of a janitorial bond.
