Selecting a remodeling contractor should be based on your ability to have trust and confidence in the contractor and his management of the process. Before you consider hiring a contractor, ask him these questions.

1. Does company have permanent location and contact places?
Look in the business yellow pages; does this company have a business listing and regular address, not PO Box? What about business phone line instead of only cellular phone.
If not, contractor could be working out of the back of his truck, and may not be there to honor any warranty issues.
You may check our business line by calling 411.

2. Is contractor a member in a non-profit professional trade association - like National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA)?
Nearly all professional contractors participate in these, and they require strict ethical standards for members:
-To deal with customers with honesty and integrity.
-To reveal all material facts so that the truth about products and services may be understand fully.
Our company has been a member of NWFA for more than 7 years. We also attend some meetings of National Association of Remodeling Industry.

5. Does company carries proper business insurance?
It is not about health insurance or car insurance. For your safety we have general liability insurance and workman's compensation insurance. Check with agent if it is current.

6. Are jobs done mostly by subs who give cheapest bids?
We "house train" our staff. Jobs are be performed by our dedicated crews, not by lowest bidding subcontractors. (This is prevalent practice with bigger companies)

7. Do you meet with salesman trying to make his commission or somebody who has technical knowledge and can give you advice based on your needs?
Only people with best skills and technical knowledge are meeting with customers to give them the best available advice.

We have been in business more than 13 years. (90% remodeling businesses fail during first 5 years)
