How can I ensure the custom furniture company I choose has adequate liability insurance in case of damage during installation?

Question

Accepted Answer

Always request a Certificate of Insurance (COI) directly from the custom furniture company, verifying their general liability coverage specific to installation and property damage before signing any contract.

A COI confirms active insurance policies, including limits and coverage types. Ensure the policy covers damages to your property and injury to third parties during the installation process, typically with a minimum coverage of $1,000,000 for general liability. Review the policy's effective dates and confirm it extends through your project's completion, as coverage can lapse or be canceled.
