You have finally decided to take the leap and hire a handyman. Now the search begins for a reputable company in your area. You have various ways to look for a handyman. While the internet provides a vast detail of information on local businesses, there is one place you should begin. Any company you are thinking of hiring needs to be bonded and insured. This article will explain the importance of this, and what it means to your relationship with the company.
Bonded
When a company is bonded, you have the peace of mind in knowing that any claims will be guaranteed. Once the claim has been properly initiated, you will be reimbursed for your loss or damage. This opens up more options for you, as smaller companies and individuals can now be marketable to you.
Insured
Under the topic of insurance, it is an added extra if your handyman company also carries worker's compensation insurance. It's additional protection for you and for the company because if a worker is injured on your property, that worker will know his resulting medical bills and time off work will be reimbursed by the company's policy. The worker knows he is protected and will not pursue you for the costs.
Now that you know the importance of your handyman being bonded and insured, you will be able to narrow the market and find the right company for the job.
