FAQs
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Ask to see certifications! Don't just take anyone's word for it. Ask for proof! With over 20 years in the industry, I have witnessed more unqualified contractors than qualified. Due to the ease of starting up a construction business in this state, it has become a "buyers be aware" type of industry!
- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
The biggest problem many of us reputable remodeling companies face is skepticism from homeowners. Some of this is warranted but much of it is not. Undoubtedly, there are bad contractors out there who are looking for quick opportunities but in my 20+ years in the industry, I have seen very very few contractors who are out to rip off homeowners. The recent popularity of "home improvement shows" focuses on "bad contractors" which fuels this issue. While I completely understand that homeowners need to look out for their interests, trust is an absolute must in a contractor/homeowner relationship and it can be difficult to establish trust when many homeowners are skeptical from the start.
