Our hearts are with the families in the Stillwater community who have recently experienced unimaginable loss due to the wildfire. Countless friends and clients have been affected. As a local company and your neighbor, we understand how overwhelming it can feel to start the rebuilding or restoration process. During this difficult time, make informed decisions as you take the next steps toward restoring your home.
Here are a few important things to consider when hiring a contractor:
Verify Licenses and Insurance – Ensure the contractor is properly licensed and carries both liability and worker’s compensation insurance. This protects you in case of accidents or unforeseen issues.
Check Local Experience and Reputation – Choose a contractor with a proven track record of quality work in Stillwater. Local companies are more familiar with building codes, regulations, and the specific needs of our community.
Request References and Portfolio – Ask for examples of past work and contact references. Hearing from other homeowners can give you confidence in your decision.
Get a Detailed Contract – A reputable contractor will provide a clear, detailed contract outlining the scope of work, timelines, and payment schedules. Avoid vague agreements that leave room for misunderstanding.
Be Cautious of Scams – Sadly, disaster situations can attract unlicensed contractors or scammers. Be wary of anyone asking for large payments upfront or pressuring you to make quick decisions.
If you have questions or need guidance as you move forward, please reach out.
We love you, Stillwater! Together, we’ll rebuild stronger.
