• Get at least three written estimates.

• Get references and call to check on the work. If possible, go by and visit earlier jobs.

• Check with the local Chamber of Commerce or Better Business Bureau for complaints.

• Be sure that the contract states exactly what is to be done and how change orders will be handled.

• Make as small a downpayment as possible so you won’t lose a lot if the contractor fails to complete the job.

• Be sure that the contractor has the necessary permits, licenses, and insurance.

• Be sure that the contract states when the work will be completed and what recourse you have if it isn’t. Also remember that in many instances you can cancel a contract within three business days of signing it.

• Ask if the contractor’s workers will do the entire job or whether subcontractors will do parts.

• Get the contractor to indemnify you if work does not meet any local building codes or regulations.

• Be sure that the contract specifies the contractor will clean up after the job and be responsible for any damage.

• Guarantee that materials used meet your specifications.

• Don’t make the final payment until you’re satisfied with the work.
