What Does it Mean When a Pressure Washing Service is Bonded and Why Is This Important?

March 7, 2022 By Griffs Services

When you are looking to hire pressure washing services, one of the things that you may want to look for in a company is whether they are bonded or not. Many people use the terms insured and bonded interchangeably, but they are actually two different terms with two very different meanings. Learning what it means for a company to be bonded may help you to see the importance of hiring a pressure washing company that is bonded when you need pressure washing. Here are a few frequently asked questions about bonding and why it is important. 

What Does It Mean When a Pressure Washing Service is Bonded? 

When a pressure washing company is bonded, it means that they have put up an insurance policy or a bond amount with their local licensing or building code enforcement office. This bond is designed to pay a new contractor to complete the work that you were supposed to if you do not complete the work, or complete the work properly, for any reason. Hiring a bonded contractor provides you with peace of mind that the work will get done once you hire a contractor and begin to make payments to that contractor for a job. 

How Does a Bond Differ From Insurance?

When a pressure washing company tells you they are insured, it means that they carry insurance that will cover any damage that they may accidentally cause to your property. For example, if the company is pressure washing your siding and they use a setting that is too high, insurance will pay to replace the damaged siding. That is very different than a bond. A bond covers work that the contractor committed to completing and that you either partially or fully paid for. So, for example, if you hire a pressure washer to powerwash your commercial building, commercial roof, and commercial parking lot, and the contractor only does the building, you can use the bond to hire a new contractor to finish the job that the existing one did not complete. 

Which Customers Should Be Most Concerned with Ensuring a Company is Bonded? 

As a general rule of thumb, those that are hiring a pressure washing company for a large project should be most concerned with ensuring that the company you are working with is bonded. These are typically commercial customers who need several surfaces cleaned. Most residential customers do not need to worry very much about finding a bonded contractor, as most residential jobs are fairly inexpensive and are completed quickly.
