Dose Handyman Need Insurance?
Most states don’t have a specific license for becoming a handyman, and as a result, don’t have specific insurance requirements for handyperson businesses. However, certain states require handypersons to obtain a general contractor license if the size and scope of their projects exceed particular criteria. In these states, handypersons will be subject to the same licensing and insurance requirements as larger general contractors, which often involve securing a contractor’s bond, public liability insurance, and workers’ compensation insurance.
