Contractor Selection



Anyone reviewing the option to hire a contract please review the following


  1. Experience. How many years has the company been in business?
  2. References. Not just letters, ask for phone numbers or visit a project or two.
  3. Payment Schedule. Pay as the job progresses not all at once.
  4. Make sure you and your contract understand the complete job. Less means less.
  5. Licensing. Review permits, company licenses with your City where applicable.
  6. Guarantees. Ask your references if the company stands by their contracts.
  7. Work Changes. How does the company deal with unforeseen site changes?
