Vet and verify
Check the credibility of the contractor you intend to entrust with your project before handing over
the project to them. You can verify their credibility using Angie’s List before verifying their status
with the right licensing agency. The contractors should provide you with proof of worker’s
compensation insurance as well as bonding if applicable.
Get Multiple Bids
Getting multiple bids is crucial for ensuring you are getting the fairest possible price. Do not just
compare prices by different general contractors, but further check to see what exactly is featured
in those costs. Be wary of contractors that quote prices that are much lower than the average
competitors are. In most instances, scammers use low prices to lure potential clients. After landing
the project, they either ask the client to pay the whole amount at once for work to commence.
Alternatively, they can demand additional payments once work on the project has begun.
