We don't hire anyone who isn't insured. Period. Full stop. End of story. Bonding as we understand it is for large construction jobs, not the kind of thing we usually hire people for. Licensing, I think is required for insurance, but we don't ask for that information. It's the insurance that is important in case they are hurt on the job or cause a lot of damage.Their insurance certificate is sent directly from their insurance company to our management company. That is important so it can't be forged. We may pay more but also are assured that the people are professionals and in the business full-time, which means less hassle for us.
