Screen Enclosures
What to look for when selecting an ethical
Screen Enclosure Company:
-
Check for a permanent place of
business, telephone number, tax I.D. number and
a business license. A professional will have
these readily available.
-
Make sure the company has a
valid state contractor's license. Ask for a copy
of the license and check with the state and make
sure it's in good standing and is the proper
license.
-
Ask the company to show you
proof of insurance. Ask to see certificates of
general liability coverage and workers'
compensation insurance. This will help protect
your property and you from a lawsuit if a worker
is injured on your property.
-
Make sure the company is
financially stable. A sound company should not
ask for large deposits.
-
Insist on a written proposal on
company stationary and examine it for complete
descriptions of the work and specifications.
Included should be approximate start and
completion dates and payment schedules.
-
Carefully read, understand, and
ask questions regarding any warranty offered and
watch for provisions that would void it.
-
Look for a company with a proven
track record that allows you to call references
to verify their work.
-
Professionalism is very
important. Be weary of any company that provides
a low-ball bid. They might be using inferior
products or not carry the proper insurance.
Questions to ask when
selecting a company in this industry:
-
Does my job require a Permit? If it does make sure
the company pulls the permit. If a company asks you
to do it they are probably not licensed.
-
How long have you been in business?
-
Will you let me call some of your past customers?
-
Have you worked in my neighborhood before?
-
What does the warranty cover? Parts, Labor and how
long?
-
Do you subcontract out your work, or will you bring
only employees to my job site? If they subcontract
can I see proof that their insured.
What to avoid when selecting a business in this
industry:
-
Companies without a permanent
location or one that does not appear
professional.
-
A company that asks for a large
deposit before starting a job.
-
A company that needs a buying
decision on the first visit.
-
A company that hand writes an
estimate on plain paper.
-
A company that will not provide
you proof of insurance.
-
A company that asks you to pull
a permit.
-
Companies that do not perform
criminal background checks on their workers.
