Building
Advice for Hiring Contractors, etc.
1. Is he/she a MA Licensed Construction Supervisor?
2. Is the individual conducting work in excess of $500.00. If so, they should possess a MA Home Improvement Contractor Registration. This was enacted to protect the consumer under the Office of Consumer Affairs.
3. Contractors are required to apply for a permit through the town building department offering you even more protection.
4. Remember, most inexpensive pricing is normally due to the contractor not obtaining Worker's Compensation Insurance for anyone working with them.
5. If injured working on your property they may be able to sue you for their injuries.
6. Ask for a Certificate of Insurance, and don't accept any excuses. All the contractor has to do is call his insurance agent, who will mail it to the customer directly.
