Unlike other states, Washington State REQUIRES A HANDYMAN to be Licensed, Bonded and Insured.

Most Reputable Spokane Handyman Contractors maintain at least $500,000 Per Occurrence Contractor General Liability Insurance.

Handyman license bonding is usually dependent on if they will sub-contract work?  Most want the option, and therefore are required to maintain a $12,000 General Contractors Bond but a $6,000 Specialty Contractors Bond is acceptable if no sub-contracting is performed.

Choosing a Spokane Handyman should be done through research first!  No doubt we have all heard the horror stories and seen the news clips.  While there is no "full proof plan" an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Below is a CHECKLIST that is the basic preliminary steps to selecting a Spokane Handyman:

  Verified Valid License and Bond with Washington Labor and Industries

  Proof of Current General Liability Insurance direct from Insurance Agent

  Check and Verify Workers Compensation Coverage and Premium Status

  Check for Fines or Judgments against Current or Past DBA's of Contractor

  Identify any subs being used PRIOR to any work (same checklist for each sub)
