Questions To Ask When Hiring a Sacramento Contractor

Here at Sunburst we’re many things: Sacramento shutter installers, home fashion pros, and more. But when it comes down to it, you could just call us Sacramento contractors.

There are a lot of contractors in Sacramento, and it may be difficult to pick the best one for you. Whether you’re planning a kitchen remodel, new flooring, or new window treatments – working with the right team is important. Below are some questions to ask the next time you hire a Sacramento contractor for your home improvement project.

Ask About Their Credentials

Regardless of the scale of your project, you should be able to put your trust in your contractor with your home. You can build that trust by checking out their credentials. Ask to see copies of any certifications and insurance – any contractor worth the money will be glad to oblige you.

Also be sure to look at some reviews. Find out what past customers have said about their services from some of these sources:

• HomeAdvisor

• Angie’s List

• Houzz

• Facebook

• Google Business

• Better Business Bureau

• Yelp

But don’t make the mistake of implicitly trusting online reviews. They’re just one thing to consider when choosing a contractor.

Ask Questions About Your Specific Project

No one knows your house better than you, so don’t be afraid to ask any questions you have about the job with your potential contractor. Are you worried about how the new flooring you want might not work with your subfloor, or thinking about if your new wood shutters are a better choice than Roman shades?

Remember to speak up and get the answers that are important to you!

Find Out About Install Day

Depending on the size of your project, install can be grueling and long, or it could be a snap. No matter what, you should get the details for installation day. Start with some of these.

• Roughly how long will the installation take?

• How many installers will be coming into my house?

• Will I need to cover any furniture or anything else in the house?

• How likely is there to be any dust or fumes during or after the installation?

• What will the noise levels be like during the installation?

• Will I need to remove children or pets from the house during the installation?
