With the world having to do most activities from home this year, there’s been a spike in home-improvement projects, and it does not seem to be slowing down anytime soon. 2020 was a record-breaking year for home improvement, with Americans spending nearly $420 billion to modify households, according to Harvard University researchers. The Handyperson Service Franchises industry has also experienced a 1.8% growth in businesses. So, what does that mean for handy workers? With more opportunities for work comes more opportunities for risks. 

If you have a customer who performs a wide range of miscellaneous residential maintenance and repair work and is not licensed in a particular trade or trained as a professional artisan, it’s important they are protected with liability insurance. With Lane & Associates’ Artisan Contractor’s Liability Insurance, our program offers low minimum premiums, lower down payments and broad additional coverage. Also, by using our online rater, LARS, and the Handyperson Class, Class 95625, you can easily rate the different types of risks faced by handy workers. 

What are you waiting for? Fast, very competitive rates and the application and paperwork are generated for you. Our goal is to make your job easy and fast – allowing you to bind more business.
