Searching for the right window replacement contractor is as important as choosing the best replacement windows. In this post, Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco has rounded up the top three questions you need to ask any prospective window contractor to guarantee that you will only get the best and most efficient one for your project.
Research Your Prospective Window Contractor
Don’t worry about looking distrustful or suspicious. It is your duty as a client to learn everything about your contractor. Check the company name and office address to ensure the likelihood of better service and quicker response time.
Check to see if they are licensed. This is crucial to guarantee that you are working with real professionals who have been trained extensively for windows replacement. It indicates their degree of knowledge and skill, professionalism and dedication to their craft. Talk to past clients, and question them about their concerns and if they were handled right.
Look for Insurance
It is critical to ask if they have proof of general liability and workers’ compensation. That is to ensure that they follow safety guidelines and to protect you in the event of an accident. Check if the insurance policy is up to date, and request the insurance company to send you a proof of current coverage, so you’re not susceptible to an expensive personal injury lawsuit.
Request for a Detailed Bid or Proposal
It is a tentative agreement that states the extent of services, products to be used, design, costs, terms of payment, financing options, permit costs, timetable, manufacturer’s warranty and workmanship warranty provided in this current project. This is a perfect jumping off point for the homeowner to finally make the choice from their shortlisted replacement windows contractors.
