North Pointe Painting warns consumers to be cautious against Hiring Unscrupulous Contractors! Read the following TIPS and PRINT OFF our checklist before Hiring a contractor to do any work in your home! TIPS FOR HIRING A PAINTING CONTRACTOR Check out the contractor - Don’t hire the first contractor who comes along. Get at least three (3) estimates, and check their references! Don’t rush into repairs, no matter how badly they are needed. Be skeptical of solicitations from those with out-of-state license plates and unmarked vehicles. Get a written contract - Make sure the contractor’s name, address and telephone number on the contract is legitimate. (Not a P.O. Box address or phone answering service.) Review the contract for cancelation costs; materials; and warranty. Be cautious of expensive change orders. Proof of Insurance - Ask for proof of General Liability and Workers’ Compensation insurance. It is required to be carried by all companies in the State of Michigan with (1) or more employees. Never pay cash - Never sign over an insurance check or pay for the project in cash. Contractors may have the ability to walk off with your money without you even having proof that you paid it to them. Deposits - Never pay a contractor more than 1/3 down payment on a project. This is typically the cost of start up on any project. Anything above and beyond is unnecessary. Check References - Ask the contractor for some names and contact information for past customers that are closely located to you. Contact at least three (3) customers and get there knowledge on the customer. The following are some questions to get you started: How satisfied are you with the work you had completed? Was the work completed by the due date? Was the job completed on budget? How did the contractor contend with any issues that came up? Lastly we suggest that you drive by and look at the work completed. Remember, everyone claims to be a contractor these days. Be smart on the decision you make hiring the right company for you.
