Every business comes with risk. Responsible business owners know this and establish systems to protect themselves and their business from potential liabilities by getting business insurance and operating safely. 
One of the most significant risks to a business is premise liability. As a business owner, you are expected to maintain a safe environment for all visitors, and if someone is injured on your property, you may be liable for damages. Potential liabilities could include:
- Inadequate property maintenance
- Slip and fall accidents
- Unsafe working conditions
To protect your business, you need to invest in proper property maintenance. As the owner, you are responsible for ensuring that your property meets building and safety codes and is adequately maintained throughout the year for safety. For example, in the winter, you are liable to ensure that your property is clear of snow, ice, and other hazards that could cause injury.
It can take a significant amount of time to keep your business property well maintained. Many business owners may be tempted to let essential maintenance and care slide, especially when things are hard or busy. If keeping up with basic property maintenance is a struggle for your business, we can help.

Instead of managing everything yourself and trying to find good vendors to deal with a liability issue when it arises, let us step in. We offer a one-stop solution for all your property management needs. If a pipe bursts, we have a qualified plumber on call. During the winter, we can arrange snow removal and clearing. During the summer, we can manage landscaping. We offer these services and more for your needs.
If you need property upgrades, we can help with that too. For example, if your business has ripped or torn carpeting and a customer trips, you could be liable for any injury they may suffer. Premise liability lawsuits or ‘slip and fall’ lawsuits can be devastating to a small business. The cost of a legal fight or a summary judgment against your business is often much higher than the cost of replacing or maintaining your property. The last thing you need right now is to deal with such issues. Working with a qualified property management company like ours can help you stay ahead of potential liability issues and avoid customer injury or litigation.
Running your own business isn’t easy. There is so much that you have to worry about and so many concerns you have to address.
