Hiring a contractor to work on your home can be an uncertain “adventure.” The good news is that if you are aware of a few things, you can be confident that you are hiring someone whom you can trust with your property.

  1. The first question to ask a contractor is if they are insured. If a company is not insured, a customer may not be reimbursed for any accidental damage that may occur. As a customer you want to be confident that your items will be and are protected.
  2. Secondly, a good question to ask is if they have any prior experience working in a customer service related position. It is important to know if those you will be hiring are able to give you a quality customer experience. As a customer it is important to know that the communication process will be smooth and that the work will get done on time. In addition, in the rare instance you would be unsatisfied with your service, you want to be sure that the concern is resolved quickly and respectfully.

Online reviews shared by customers can be VERY helpful when considering whom to hire. According to studies by VPDM, “69% of all consumers will search the internet for online reviews of a product, service, hotel, restaurant, or attraction, before making a decision to purchase.”

I’ve used this company a couple times now for window cleaning, and have had a good experience both times. My windows look great after, making a huge difference in my old home! Most of my windows are double hung storm windows, making it very difficult for me to take them apart and clean them myself, but the workers at this company seem to have no problems with them. The young man out last, Cole, was awesome- very professional, thorough, and even did a couple extra windows for me…really appreciated his commitment to ensuring I was satisfied!
