Seven ways to hire a reputable window company
you can trust and, that won’t rip you off
-
Call the Better Business Bureau. Ask
them if the company you’re considering is a member.
Ask how are they rated.
-
Dial 411. Is the telephone registered to the
address on their quote? The numbers should match in
the event you have to track them down for any
reason.
-
Is the address a residential home, mini
storage or commercial building? Best bet is a
commercial building for buying power, housing parts,
and direct customer communication better able to
complete any job at a competitive price.
-
Make sure your contractor is licensed, bonded
and insured. It’s easy to show proof of insurance.
But if it is not paid for, it’s not current which
can result in litigation against you.
-
For your protection ask for a written
warranty on both labor and material.
-
Look for uniformed consultants and installers
with clean and lettered trucks. Chances are there is
a reputable company to support quality service.
-
Ask if the actual installers are employees or
subcontracted. You want one company responsible for
the job and not a subcontractor you didn’t hire.
I’ve
been in this business over twenty years and seen
just about everything that can go wrong with
contractors around the home. So, follow these seven
ideas and you will reduce maybe even eliminate the
stress and hassle that can come in selecting a
company.
