What is insurance for beauty?
Being a beauty therapist means working closely with your clients.
From a nasty reaction to a treatment to a stained carpet in a customer’s home, everyday accidents can have serious consequences for you and your business.
Most clients try to understand when things go wrong, but it only takes one compensation claim to put your business under serious strain.
You can protect against most claims from clients with our Treatment Liability Cover, which you can add onto your policy.
With Churchill’s flexible insurance you get reliable, cost‐effective cover for all aspects of your business.
We can tailor our cover to suit your needs and offer you insurance that’s there when you need it.
What insurance do we have for beauticians?
Public Liability Insurance
Public Liability Insurance isn’t legally compulsory for beauticians but most people in customer-facing industries think it’s essential and sometimes contracts require it.
As well as giving you peace of mind and security for your business, it also helps you present a professional image.
Having Public Liability Insurance means you’re protected if you or an employee accidentally injures a customer or damages their property.
Our Public Liability Insurance offers you up to £1 million of cover as standard, with the option of increasing it to up to £10 million.

Tools and business equipment cover

You can cover your valuable business equipment for up to £10,000 as an optional extra for added peace of mind.
Our cover includes mobile phones and laptops.
