When you invite a painting contractor into your home, insurance isn't optional — it's the line between a professional and a liability. Cornerstone Pro Painting carries full general liability coverage and WSIB (Workplace Safety & Insurance Board) clearance on every job in Toronto and the GTA. You receive the certificate before a single drop sheet hits your floor.
Many painting companies operating in the GTA are unregistered sole operators with no coverage. If a worker is injured on your property, or accidental damage occurs, an uninsured contractor leaves you exposed. We eliminate that risk entirely — in writing, before we start.

Our WSIB clearance means if a crew member is hurt on your property, you have zero exposure. That's not a small thing — it's a legal protection most homeowners don't know they need.
We provide the Certificate of Insurance before work begins. You don't have to ask twice — it's part of our standard process, not a reluctant concession.
We don't subcontract to uninsured labourers. Every person on your job is part of our crew and covered under our policy. Who we quote is who shows up.
Before hiring any painting contractor in Toronto, it takes about five minutes to confirm their coverage is real. Here's what to check — and what a legitimate contractor will have no hesitation providing.
Not legally required, but any reputable professional maintains general liability. Without it, your homeowner's insurance may be liable for accidents. Choosing an insured painting contractor in Toronto isn't just smart — it's the only reasonable option when you're inviting workers into your home.
Our policy covers accidental property damage during painting — walls, flooring, furniture, fixtures. We carry $2 million in general liability coverage. If we accidentally damage something, it goes through our insurance. You don't pay anything, and there's no uncomfortable back-and-forth about who's responsible.
The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board provides coverage for workers injured on the job. If a painter without WSIB clearance is hurt on your property, you as the homeowner can be held responsible for their medical costs and lost wages. Our WSIB clearance transfers that liability where it belongs — away from you entirely.
Absolutely. We send the Certificate of Insurance before any work begins — no request required. It's part of our standard onboarding, and it names you as a certificate holder so you can confirm the coverage directly with our insurer if you'd like.
On some larger projects we do work with subcontractors. Before any subcontractor sets foot on your property, we verify that they carry their own full insurance coverage — general liability and WSIB clearance, just like our own crew. We don't cut corners on that standard regardless of who is doing the work. You get the same protection either way.
