Remember if you go with the wrong classification and something happens or you get audited they can go back 7 years and back charge at the proper rate. Your better off biting the bullet and paying as you go. I had one serious accident several years ago and was happy there were no questions. My employee/friend had no worries for medical bills. Had I had improper coverage it could have been bad. You should figure it into your price and do it right.You owe it to your customers. I wouldnt want someone working on my property with inadequate coverage.
