Finding an Honest Home Improvement Contractor

You can’t call yourself a dentist unless you have specific hard-earned credentials. Just about anyone, however, can hang a shingle and call themselves a home improvement contractor. That’s why choosing a reputable one is so difficult.

Here are some tips:
1) Find out if they are truly in business full-time.
2) Ask about licenses and other credentials. Some contractors have accreditations from professional and trade associations.
3) Review their project portfolio. A reputable contractor will have photos and other evidence of work completed for similar clients.
4) Check online for reviews. If there are more than five poor reviews within the past three years — that’s a red flag.
5) Ask for references. Then, call at least one.

Finally, the best contractors are those that get recommended by people you trust. Looking for a contractor recommendation? Call today.
