As a family business, we’ve always done a good job and treated our customers right—and over the past 30+ years we’ve been able to build a nice business because of it. However, over the years we’ve noticed that some consumers will choose less-than-reputable companies or contractors to do jobs for them… usually because they only focus on price. Don’t get us wrong: we’re all for good, honest competition and a great value, after all, that’s what we’d want for ourselves. But it pains us to see people risk their hard- earned money with contractors who don’t have their best interests at heart. You deserve a great value for your money—and a contractor that stands behind their work in both word and deed.

We wanted to find a way to educate consumers about how to choose a good, honest home improvement contractor. The industry standards simply aren’t tough enough—just about anybody with a hammer and a pickup truck can be a contractor. That’s why we created this guide with a set of standards that we adhere to.

We hope you use this guide and set of standards outlined to select a good contractor, if you do, you’ll protect yourself and increase your chances to get exactly what you want out of your project.
