The Short Answer
To register as a contractor in Washington, you must have two things: a Surety Bond ($30k for General, $15k for Specialty) and General Liability Insurance (at least $250k combined single limit). At Hood Insurance Agency, we specialize in "Bundling the Pack"—getting you the bond, the liability, and the COI (Certificate of Insurance) you need for L&I Form F625-001-000 (Contractor Registration) or F500-019-000 (Electrical/Telecom Bonds), often on the same day.

Your gear is your lifeblood. Just like a wolf relies on sharp teeth, you rely on your tools. This coverage keeps your equipment protected from fire, theft, or vandalism—whether it’s locked in your Lynnwood shop or sitting on a job site in Bellevue. From heavy machinery to handheld power tools, we ensure your "Pack" is always ready to work.
Even the strongest wolf can stumble. If a ladder falls or damage happens on-site, liability coverage shields your business from claims that could otherwise take down the whole pack. Whether you’re working in Snohomish County or right here in Lynnwood, this is the backbone of contractor protection.
Your trucks and vans are the legs of your operation, carrying the pack from job to job across the Puget Sound region. Auto coverage keeps them moving — even if an accident tries to slow you down.
Every pack looks out for its own. Workers’ comp makes sure your crew is protected if someone gets hurt, while keeping you compliant with Washington state requirements — so your business stays strong and united.

Frequently Asked Questions for Washington Contractors
How fast can I get a Certificate of Insurance (COI)?
At Hood Insurance, we specialize in same-day COIs. We understand that Lynnwood contractors can't afford to wait to get on a job site. Once your policy is active, we can often issue your certificate in minutes.
What is Washington Stop-Gap coverage and why do I need it?
In Washington, L&I handles workers' comp, but it doesn't protect you from employee lawsuits. Stop-Gap coverage is an essential add-on to your General Liability policy that fills this legal hole, protecting your business assets.
How much does contractor insurance cost in Lynnwood, WA?
While rates vary by trade, many local contractors find coverage starting between $75–$150 per month. We shop 30+ A-rated carriers to find the most competitive "Wolf Pack" rates for your specific risk.
**Do you provide the $12,000 and $6,000 L&I Contractor Bonds?** Yes. We issue both General ($12,000) and Specialty ($6,000) Continuous Contractor Bonds required by the Washington Dept. of Labor & Industries to keep your license active and compliant.
