Hiring a
non-insured or under-insured tree service
could be financial ruin to homeowners. When
a worker is injured on the job site, the
first suit will be against the company they
are working for. Workman’s comp. covers not
only injuries but also provides the family
with support in serious injury or fatal
cases - either of these instances can be
extremely lengthy and expensive.
If the
company does not carry workers’ compensation
it is probably because they cannot afford
to, which means they will probably not have
the funds to meet the demands of the
lawsuit. Once that avenue is exhausted, the
next stop is the homeowner. Often the
homeowners insurance will not cover the
costs due to the homeowners’ negligence for
hiring a service that is not FULLY insured.
Tree Service
is a hazardous job that should be performed
by skilled professionals. Mistakes happen
even by the most skilled of workers. In a
country where we can sue for our coffee
being too hot, don’t let yourself get caught
unprotected!
