Consider the advantages of working with an HBA member on your next project.
All HBA members are required to carry general liability insurance and workers compensation insurance. Although they should (and in some cases are legally required to), not all nonmembers carry these important insurance policies that protect you – their customers – from liability and expense. Ask this important question of anyone working on your home. And don’t take any excuses. This is your home we’re talking about!
HBA members are committed to continuing education to stay “in the know” about how to provide you with the highest quality service and products while efficiently keeping managing your costs. Many members have earned professional designations through the National Association of Home Builders. These designations demonstrate the member is committed to giving their customer every possible advantage on a project. To learn more about these designations and who holds them, just visit SpringfieldHBA .com.
