How do I check a carpentry subcontractor's compliance documents?
Last reviewed July 5, 2026
Request the subcontractor's compliance documents like their licenses, insurance, and safety management plans. Check if they meet your project requirements. Use a checklist to ensure nothing's missed and follow up if any documents are missing or outdated.
Key points
- Request licenses and insurance documents.
- Check safety management plans.
- Use a compliance checklist.
- Follow up on missing or outdated docs.
Check the compliance documents before the subcontractor starts work. It's on you to make sure they're up to scratch. If they're not compliant, it can lead to delays or safety issues on site.
