Licensure and Insurance

Licensed contractors are regulated to protect the consumer. They are also bonded and must complete four years of journey or higher experience level in their craft. If your landscape costs more than $500, the contractor must be licensed by the California State License Board. To verify that your contractor has a valid license, contact the board at 1-800-321-2752 or go to www.cslb.ca.gov. Contractors must demonstrate a minimum level of skill, competency, and financial responsibility to be licensed. Lindquist Landscapes CA contractor's license is 592265 - look us up!

California's cities and counties require business licenses for firms operating within their jurisdiction as well. Lindquist Landscapes has a business license in the cities of Arcata, Eureka, and Trinidad.

Contractors must also provide workers' compensation insurance for their employees. Workers' compensation protects you from liability in case a worker employed by a contractor is injured on your property. Along with worker's compensation, Lindquist Landscapes has general liability insurance for $1 million that protects you against calamities such as floods or landslides caused by construction. Lindquist Landscapes also possesses automobile insurance for all of our company vehicles.

Unlicensed individuals are typically not bonded and may not have liability or workers' compensation insurance, thereby exposing you to financial responsibility if an injury, fire, or other property damage occurs. Lindquist Landscapes encourages you to please take the time to confirm licensure and insurance before hiring a landscape contractor. If you have any questions about licensure or insurance, please don't hesitate to call.
