Most trades in Ontario operate under provincial regulations including WSIB (Workplace Safety & Insurance Board) coverage and Commercial General Liability insurance. Always confirm both before hiring.
Each approved tradesperson on WiseTrades clears identity confirmation plus insurance-issuer phone validation prior to receiving quote-submission privileges. Going off-platform? Insist on a clean copy of the contractor's general liability policy plus a verifiable trade qualification — homeowner-paid losses from unlicensed work are unforgiving.
Before you book a window installer across Brantford, ON
- Ask whether the window installer you are quoting carries WSIB or WCB clearance specifically (not just liability insurance) — worker-injury exposure can land on the homeowner without it.
- Confirm sub-trade arrangements: most Brantford window installer work involves at least one sub-trade, and the lead contractor's responsibility for sub-quality must be explicit.
- Negotiate retention on final payment (typically five-to-ten percent) held back until the post-handover punch-list closes.
