Screening Contractor’s so You Don’t Have Too

February 5, 2010 · Leave a Comment

After many years in the construction industry and working on large jobsites I have come to know what a good contractor is and what good contractor isn’t. I know what quality work looks like and can see where shortcuts have been taken. I have heard the catcalls, seen the gestures and felt the uncomfortable stares. For those reasons and many more Urban Referrals has adopted the policy to personally interview each one of our prospective contractors. I often meet them on site to get a feel for their respectfulness of privacy and property, quality of work, and to observe their staff. I call client and trade references to further our knowledge of the contractors work history, quality of work and payment history. Urban Referrals expects our contractors to meet our high standards when it comes to communication, customer service, and work ethic. We may ask to join 2 of every 10 contractors we meet with.

We look forward to connecting you with exceptional remodeling companies for all your home projects.
