I had a handyman that I wrote with Colonial General under $700 in AZ. Handyman has been in business for 3 years, no prior insurance.

Try Builders & Tradesman Insurance Services or BTIS in Sacramento area. They are pretty reasonable

Re: Handyman, Gen Liability
Colony is very aggressive on this class in California. However, your risk does not sound like a handyman, with $300,000 in payroll. In California, a handyman is limited to jobs under $500, and is not required to be licensed to do that sort of work.
You may have more luck marketing this risk as a true artisan contractor.
