Handyman with COI
for NYC Buildings
Building won't schedule anyone without a Certificate of Insurance? We're an insured handyman company and can support COI paperwork for covered work. Text the building's sample wording for a free estimate.
Many NYC apartments, co-ops, condos, offices and managed buildings require a Certificate of Insurance before any handyman, installer or repair technician can start work. Repair ASAP LLC is an insured handyman service that can support COI paperwork for covered jobs after the building requirements and job scope are reviewed.
If your building wants a Certificate of Insurance before a handyman comes in, this is the service: co-op and condo work, doorman-building repairs, property-manager punch lists, and move-in setups where management needs the paperwork before the visit.
Common COI-ready requests include TV mounting, shelves, curtain rods, mirrors, art, furniture assembly, window AC installation, lock installation, drywall repair, small punch-list repairs, plug-in appliance setup, bath accessory swaps and apartment move-in projects.
We serve Queens, Manhattan, Brooklyn and Staten Island. For a faster COI review, text the building's COI sample, management contact, service address, requested wording, work dates, task list, photos and product links.
COI support does not replace building approval. Some buildings require specific certificate holder wording, additional insured language, waiver wording, elevator reservations, freight scheduling, floor protection, work-hour limits or superintendent coordination before the appointment is confirmed.
Electrical, plumbing and gas work is not ours: wiring, circuits, fixtures and outlets go to a NYC Licensed Master Electrician, and valves, drains, piping and gas lines to a NYC Licensed Master Plumber. DOB permit-level changes and alteration-agreement scope are flagged before booking so the building's contractor can take them.

COI Handyman FAQ
Does Repair ASAP LLC provide COI for NYC buildings?
Yes. Repair ASAP LLC can support Certificate of Insurance paperwork for covered co-op, condo, office and managed-building jobs after the building requirements and service scope are reviewed.
What should I send for COI paperwork?
Send the COI sample or requirements, certificate holder name and address, additional insured wording, management contact email, service address, desired date, and the exact scope of work.
Can you work in co-op and condo buildings?
Yes. We regularly review co-op, condo, doorman building and property-manager requirements for mounting, assembly, repairs, bath accessory swaps, AC installation and apartment punch-list work.
Does COI guarantee building approval?
No. COI support helps with insurance paperwork, but building approval still depends on management rules, wording requirements, alteration agreements, work hours, elevator reservations and whether the work fits handyman scope.
What work may need a licensed trade?
We do not do electrical, plumbing or gas work: light fixtures, outlets, switches, wiring and circuits are done by a NYC Licensed Master Electrician, and valves, drains, leaks and any piping or gas line by a NYC Licensed Master Plumber. DOB permit-level changes and alteration-agreement scope go to the building's contractor.
