Who Cares if my Handyman is Licensed and Insured?
Who Cares if my Handyman is Licensed and Insured?
Did you hear the horror story of the flooring guy who fainted on the job? The repairman who fell from the ladder? The plumber who disappeared mid job?
It’s enough to make you want to lock the doors and never let a stranger walk in. But there is a simpler step.
Make sure any worker you use is licensed and insured.
Why is this so important? Can’t you have Uncle Bob install the storm door or fix your deck?
Hiring someone licensed and insured, such as a Nail It handyman, protects you and your family in many ways. If a worker is injured on the job, worker’s compensation insurance will cover that. If you take the chance and hire that nice college students, who unknown to you has no medical insurance and s/he slips on your path or is otherwise injured in your home, you’ll have to cover those medical bills.
Another reason to only use licensed and insured handyman company: We know our job. We have been educated to do what we say we do, and know how to do it legally. That means we showed that we are skilled in the specific areas we do. Unlicensed handyman may make bigger mistakes with faulty wiring or repairs that collapse. While hiring your neighbor for a job may save a couple of bucks, you will likely end up fixing up again when the shoddy repair is exposed.
An unlicensed or uninsured fellow may take off with your payment at lunch, and never come back. With a reputable licensed and insured handyman company, there is no need to worry. You can lodge a complaint if that would happen.
