Subcontractor Disclaimer
This page is a general template and should be reviewed by legal counsel before it is relied upon.
Some work coordinated by 1NSG Corp is performed by independent, properly licensed subcontractors. Where a project requires a regulated specialty trade, that work is performed by, coordinated with, or subcontracted to professionals holding the appropriate license for that scope.
1NSG Corp is a Florida licensed general contractor operating under Florida CGC1536356. 1NSG does not represent itself as the licensed contractor for a specialty trade unless it holds the proper license for that specific scope.
Where 1NSG Corp serves as the contractor of record for the applicable scope, it remains responsible for coordinating that work. Questions can be directed to 1NSG Corp at 833-333-1674 or services@1nsg.com.
Why Subcontractors Are Used at All
Almost every commercial project involves more than one trade, and Florida licenses many of those trades separately. Rather than claim a scope we are not licensed for, work requiring a regulated specialty trade is performed by, coordinated with, or subcontracted to a contractor holding the appropriate license for that scope. This is standard practice on commercial and multifamily construction, not an exception.
Who You Deal With
Where 1NSG Corp is the contractor of record, you deal with 1NSG. One point of contact, one schedule, one invoice. Coordinating the trades, sequencing the work, and managing the site is the general contractor’s job, and it is not something a board or property manager should be doing on the owner’s side.
Licensing and Insurance of Subcontractors
Subcontractors performing regulated work hold their own license for that trade and carry their own insurance. 1NSG Corp is a Florida Certified General Contractor, license CGC1536356, and does not represent itself as the licensed contractor for a specialty trade unless it holds the proper license for that specific scope.
What an Owner Should Request
- Certificates of insurance for the general contractor, and for specialty trades where the scope warrants it
- Confirmation of which entity is pulling each permit and under which license
- A written scope identifying which work falls under a regulated trade
- Lien releases as work is completed and paid, which is standard on Florida construction
These are reasonable requests on any project and a contractor should not hesitate to provide them. On association work, boards frequently need this documentation for their own records, their insurer, or their attorney.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does subcontracting mean less accountability?
It should mean the opposite. Where 1NSG is the contractor of record, coordination and responsibility for the overall project sit with us rather than being distributed across vendors the owner has to manage individually.
Can we know who is actually performing the work?
Yes. Ask, and you will be told which trades are subcontracted and to whom. Boards and managers frequently want this in writing, which is a reasonable expectation.
