If I hire a licenced electrician, painter, etc., to do work on my property, what happens if they are injured?

Question

This is for florida law experts :) - If they are also insured would any injury be covered or would I still be liable?

Answer 1

When signing any contract for home improvements, make sure the contractor is licensed, bonded and insured. (this should include any sub-contractors he uses) This protects you from liability. people sometimes try to save money by hiring contractors who do not have this coverage and are liable for any injuries on their property.
