FAQs

There's No Such Thing As A Silly Question

Check out the FAQs below – chances are, other people have asked the same questions you have. If you don’t see your questions answered here, give us a call! We'd be happy to talk with you one-on-one.

Are you fully licensed/ insured/ bonded?

We are fully licensed, insured, and all BWC premiums are paid. We do NOT hire subcontractors to complete our work on your property (example: other companies may hire a separate stump removal company or separate company with a crane). We own all of the necessary equipment your job may need, and do all of the work ourselves. This helps to keep costs down on both ends! And gives you peace of mind knowing you have a skilled, qualified and protected company working on your real estate.

Insurance Importance – Contractor insurance covers any damages to your property that could potentially happen while work is being performed on your property. If a company is uninsured and an accident happens you are gambling that company will fix it themselves. Your homeowners insurance will NOT cover it. That's a risk you don't want to take.

BWC Importance – Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) protects all employees from workplace injuries and hazards. If a contractor does not have proper coverage on employees and an employee gets injured on your property they can go after you, the property owner, for compensation.
