How to hire the right general contractor

• Check the license. Most states license this trade, so look up the general contractor on the your state licensing board website before you hire.
• Check the contractor license with your state board, ask for lien waivers from subcontractors and keep every change order in writing.
• Ask for proof of general liability insurance, and workers compensation if they have a crew.
• Get at least three written quotes that list the scope, materials, timeline and price.
• Read reviews for patterns, and look at how the pro replies to complaints.
• Never pay the full price before the work is done. Tie payments to finished milestones.
