When getting bids, if you’re satisfied with your contractor’s experience and projected budget, the next step is to make sure both you and the company have the right insurance; contractor general liability insurance, workers compensation insurance, contractor commercial auto insurance.

The contractor should have protection through a financially sound insurance company.  $2-million in contractors liability insurance is a reasonable expectation

You also should inform your own insurance company that work is under way on your house. It’s unlikely you’ll need to take out more insurance, but the company will let you know if there’s anything extra that needs to be done.

If you’re taking down trees and there’s a risk, you need to be covered for the unforeseens.
