"Al made this project easy. He was patient as I made my way thru my coop requirements. Then, when the work was done, he had excellent workers do the job in two days with no undue disruption. He replaced plumbing under the kitchen sink, replaced the rotting cabinet and installed a dishwasher. I recommend him highly."

"We recently had three of our bathrooms renovated by RenoU (Fitz & Mila), and found their creative designs helped transform our space into something both beautiful and functional, and their attention to detail was most appreciated. Unlike our experience with previous home renovation projects done by others, we found the entire process with RenoU relatively stress-free, and they listened closely to our ideas while offering thoughtful suggestions. We especially love that RenoU is a woman-owned company, bringing a unique and inspired perspective to their work. Those interested in a home renovation project should consider meeting with them and exploring what they have to offer."

Frequently asked questions
- It’s important that you verify their license is still in good standing. Also keep in mind that certain states or provinces don’t require licensing if the job is under a certain dollar amount.
- You can find a list of your state’s licensing requirements on the HomeAdvisor website. Before you get to work with the pro, make sure their qualifications are current and acceptable to you.
- It is always a good idea to get a copy of the pro’s insurance certificate for future records, and in case anything happens. This is a good way to feel more secure in your home project, and to weed out potential scammers.
HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
- Have you completed a job like this before?
- Do you have a list of references I can contact?
- When are you able to start the job?
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
- How many years of experience do you have?
- What’s your permanent business address?
- Are you licensed to work in my area?
- When did you earn your business license?
- How do you handle warranty service complaints?
- Do you have worker’s compensation, property damage and personal liability insurance?
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
