π¨ RED FLAGS OF HIRING AN UNLICENSED CONTRACTOR π¨
Before you sign a contract, make sure you're protecting your home and your wallet. Hiring an unlicensed contractor can lead to costly mistakes, unfinished work, and even legal issues.
β οΈ Watch out for these warning signs:
β They can't provide a valid contractor license number.
β They ask for a large cash payment upfront.
β No written contract or vague paperwork.
β They don't carry liability or workers' compensation insurance.
β Their price seems too good to be true.
β They pressure you into making an immediate decision.
β They can't provide references or examples of previous work.
β They suggest pulling permits under the homeowner's name to avoid requirements.
Hiring a licensed and insured contractor helps ensure the work is completed safely, professionally, and according to local building codes.
π Don't risk your biggest investment. Always verify licenses, insurance, and references before hiring a contractor.
