Interior Painting of Main Floor
I hired Executive Touch to do some painting in the beginning of December. Massimo and his crew finished the job ahead of schedule with minimal inconvenience. They are reliable and hardworking painting contractors and I do not hesitate recommending them to others.
One additional point that should be mentioned is that Executive Touch maintains both liability insurance and a Workman Safety Insurance Board (WSIB) Clearance Certificate; Massimo provided evidence of both when he provided his initial quote. Even though the quote provided by Executive Touch was a bit more expensive than the one I received from another contractor, I decided to go with Massimo for this reason.
When a renovation or construction project is underway, a home may be considered a work site under Ontario's Occupational Health and Safety Act (if certain conditions are present). If an injury occurs due to unsafe work practices, the home owner may be charged or fined under this legislation. Retaining a contractor who is registered with the WSIB (http://www.wsib.on.ca/) will reduce your potential liability.
If you are considering more than one contractor, ask each of them to provide evidence of liability insurance and WSIB registration. You will probably find that many do not carry insurance and are not registered by the WSIB.
