Starting a cleaning business - Help please..?

Hi, i have recently been thinking about starting my own cleaning business. I have made my website http://www.skybluecleaning.co.uk .

I'm after some advise from anyone who may have done this before.

First until the business gets flowing just me and my partner will be doing the work/cleans. What typw of insurance would we need. And any other cover? Amny type of business lisence? Anything else?

Would really appreciate the info - obviously i will be looking into it more indepth and want to do things properly. When we employ people we want them to be self employed - as i am for a cleaning company at the minute. How do i go about this as the employer?

thanks
