What Lyal said!
Just ask them at the same time that you tell them to have their INSURANCE CARRIER, not the contractor, fax you over a copy of their LIABILITY INSURANCE.
Without both in your hand they should not be on your property!
Re: to 1099 a contractor do you need their ss#? - Posted by David Krulac

if they are inc or llc you don’t need to do a 1099. you can use either their EIN or SSN but you need one. If you paid them less than $600 no 1099 is needed.
