4 Reasons to Always Use an Insured Contractor
March 11, 2008 No Comments
Having work done in your home can be very stressful, which is why you should always make sure you are using a fully insured contractor.
1. If an insured contractor does work and a loss occurs due to their negligence, their Liability Insurance will cover it. If the contractor is uninsured, your insurance will respond.
2. If an insured contractor is injured on your property his Workers’ Compensation. Insurance is responsible rather than your insurance.
3. If the contractor damages your property while on the job, his insurance will cover it rather than having to put a claim in under your own insurance.
4. Putting a claim in against your insurance policy can cause a penalty at renewal depending on the extent of the loss. This will cost you more out of pocket. Using an insured contractor can easily reduce this risk.
