As more people are turning to remodeling instead of moving — and with the decline in new construction meaning more eager contractors to chose from — it makes sense to know how to choose a contractor.You need is someone who does quality work in a reasonable amount of time, understands exactly what it is you’re looking for, and most importantly that you can trust. Narrowing down the list can be intimidating. A wrong choice can result in a pile of headaches. Here are a couple of tips to ease the transition from research to hire: Ask for referrals from friends, family, colleagues, and neighbors. Receiving a referral from someone you know is often the best way to find the right person to do the job. Verify Insurance and Licensing. Ask to see any applicable state and local licenses, bonding, and insurance coverage. Quality contracting firms will be only too happy to provide you with copies. Get multiple estimates. Getting multiple bids allows you to compare prices, plus chances are each person or company that comes out will bring up some point or issue that the others left out. Do not blindly accept the lowest offer. Price is only one part of the equation. Remember, as with anything in life, you get what you paid for. Always compare apples to apples. Ask for references. Past customers can offer valuable insight about the building experience — everything from personality to timeliness to quality. Take the time ...
Shelton, WA Customer Review and Photos
“Enclosed you will find several pictures of the Clearview Stainless Steel deck railing system that we purchased from you last March. When we picked up our deck rail system from your factory, we found it to be very well packaged and organized with directions that allowed me to install it by myself in less than two days.
We love the new open view that we now have! It is wonderful to have a clear view of our lake from all angles instead of the blocked view that we had with the old wooden picket deck rail. Many of our friends and family have commented on how our new deck rail has modernized and updated our home.
Thanks again for all of your help and guidance. We found everyone in your office and warehouse to be very helpful and professional at all times. It was a pleasure working with your company and will certainly recommend your product to others that may be interested in a similar system.” –Gary and Sandi, Shelton WA
