Things you should know before hiring
a contractor:
Check the siding contractor's license
Siding contractors who are unlicensed pose
a risk to your financial security. Siding contractors expose
you to significant financial harm in the event of injury or
property damage. Unlicensed siding contractors usually do not
have bonding or workers compensation insurance.
Siding contractors who are unlicensed may
not have the expertise and qualifications to do the job right
the first time. You could end up having to hire a licensed,
reputable siding contractor to correct the work-and paying for
the job twice.
Check to see the siding contractor's pocket
license and some additional form of identification. The name
on the pocket license should be the same as the name of the
contractor or business name the siding contractor is working
under.
Check the siding contractor's references
Check the siding contractor's references, and call them to see if they
were satisfied with the contractors work. Skilled contractors will be proud
to take credit for their work. Remember, the person you hire to work in your
home will be in and around your home until the job is completed.
You may also wish to check the siding contractors out with your local
consumer protection agency, consumer fraud unit in your city or district
attorney's office, and the Better Business Bureau. We will be glad to provide
you with websites and phone numbers of these agencies just call one of our
customer care reps or check out our links section below.
Ask the contractor for the address of his or her business location
and business telephone number, and verify them. A contractor
who operates a business out of the back of a pickup truck with
a cellular telephone may be difficult to find to complete a
job or fix something that has gone wrong after the last bill
is paid.
Make sure the siding contractor has workers' compensation
and liability insurance coverage
Verify that the siding contractor is insured against claims covering
workers compensation, property damage, and personal liability in case of
accidents. Ask to see a copy of the certificate of insurance, or ask for
the name of the insurance carrier and agency to verify that the siding
contractor has the insurance.
Siding contractors must tell you whether or
not they carry general liability insurance and that it will
protect against third-party bodily injury and property damage.
If uninsured, they should be able to explain how they would
cover losses that would ordinarily be covered by insurance.
Bonds
Some bonds are designed to protect you against substandard
work that does not comply with local building codes. Bonds do
not assure the financial or professional integrity or competency
of a siding contractor.
Institutional lenders such as savings and loans, insurance
companies or commercial banks generally require contractors
to secure bonds for large jobs.
