Your siding plays a crucial role in your home’s beauty, protection and energy efficiency, so it’s important to hire a reliable, experienced siding contractor. Follow these tips from Spicer Bros. Construction, Inc. when looking for a contractor and you won’t go wrong:
Interview Potential Contractors
Shortlist several contractors from a pool of candidates and take the time to talk to each one and explain your needs. While you’re at it, check each one’s license for validity and examine their portfolio. You’ll want to make sure the contractor has experience on projects using the type of siding you desire. Some contractors specialize in certain types of siding but not on other types.
You should also ask for a detailed, written quote from each contractor and get work guarantees in writing. Take into consideration each contractor’s professional appearance, attitude and willingness to answer questions. Their level of professionalism reflects how serious they are about the job.
Spicer Bros. Construction, Inc. is recognized by the CertainTeed® as a Five Star siding contractor. This is the industry’s highest credential for siding applications. It comes with prior certifications by the Vinyl Siding Institute of America as well.
Ask Each Contractor for References
Word of mouth, even in the digital age, is still the best way to find the contractor you’re looking for. Ask your contractor for references and contact these people. You should also ask friends, colleagues and neighbors about contractors they have hired, especially if the project was recent. You can also obtain references from a siding material supply store or home renovation center.
Choose the Contractor Who Best Meets Your Budget and Needs
Review specific job responsibilities and expectations. Include details on old material removal, potential problems and time frame for completion. Determine who should get the required permits and review the written and signed contract. It should outline material costs, labor charges, start date and estimated completion date and other matters of interest or concern.
