Insurance

During construction by A-1 Hurricane Fence Industries, your property is fully insured and our employees are bonded. Certificates are available upon request for workers' compensation and liablility. Beware, if a company cannot produce these certificates, you as the property owner, more than likely, are responsible should someone be injured during construction of your fence. Most home owners insurance companies require contractors to carry workers' compensation. Some contractors will tell you that they are workers' comp exempt, which only means that they are not required by the state to carry workers' compensation because of the number of employees. But this does not relieve your liability in the event they are hurt on the job. Your insurance carrier may very well still be liable.

About Warranties

Remember, any warranty is only as good as the company which gives it, therefore, caution should be used in selecting the company you purchase from in view of the fact, more than 25 fence companies have gone out of business in Northwest Florida in the last 15 years. Obviously, a warranty from one of these companies would be of no value.
