Does work in Hillsborough require permits?

The City of Hillsborough enforces strict permit requirements for structural work. NorTech keeps handyman work within California's $1,000 exemption and confirms scope before starting; larger projects are bid on by NorTech-verified licensed contractors.

Are providers insured, and can the work be additional-insured?

Yes. Every pro on NorTech carries their own general liability insurance, and you receive your pro’s certificate before the job. Ask your pro when booking if you need your Hillsborough property named as additional insured.

What does it cost to book pre-purchase (buyer's) inspection in Hillsborough?

Pricing is up-front and shown before you commit — enter your Hillsborough ZIP — Lower North, Upper North and every nearby neighborhood are covered, pick Pre-Purchase (Buyer's) Inspection, and the price is right there. Your card is held for the price at booking and only charged once the job is done.

Is pre-purchase (buyer's) inspection in Hillsborough backed by a warranty?

Yes. Your pro backs every Hillsborough job with a workmanship warranty of at least 30 days on general repairs and at least 90 days on tile, flooring, doors, and windows, and your pro may offer more. If covered work isn't right inside that window, your pro makes it right at no charge.
