Do your research – read online reviews and compare prices before choosing a company
Ask around – get recommendations from friends and family members who have used similar services
Check for licenses and insurance – make sure the company is licensed to do business in your state and that they have liability insurance in case of accidents or damage
Get an estimate in writing – any reputable company will provide you with a written estimate before starting work
Pay attention to the details – be sure to read the contract carefully, ask questions if something is unclear, and don’t sign anything until you’re fully satisfied
Don’t pay up front – reputable companies will not require payment until the job is completed to your satisfaction
