"I hired BEX Contracting to skim coat and paint my mother apartment. Bex was very helpful with mount of paperwork required by the building. The apartment had a lot of cracks in the wall and ceiling. Bex and his team did a fantastic job scraping the cracks and skim coating to a smooth finish both walls and ceiling. The paint job was very good. I highly recommend Bex and his team."

"This company is very good and honorable I will be hiring them again very soon. They provided a free estimate and they provided me with a great price and wonderful service. They found the problem the same day and fixed it and they cleaned my bathroom once they were done. What more can you ask for.!"

"I hired Johnny after discovering 2 rusted out leaking pipes in the kitchen drain line of a two story private dwelling, one pipe on each floor. I decided to replace the entire kitchen drain line. This involved three kitchens and Johnny was the confident and experienced contractor I was looking for to accomplish the job. This was a big job involving 2 remodeled kitchens and one kitchen opened (sheetrock, countertop & cabinets) for pipe replacement then reinstall sheetrock, cabinets & countertop. Johnny handled the remodeling of 2 kitchens and replacement of the kitchen drain in a timely professional manner. I was confident in the work done and hired Johnny to remodel two and a half bathrooms. I requested a bathroom floor be broken open to expose pipes that might need to be replaced at this optimal time of construction and Johnny proceeded to expose the pipes and replace all the plumbing. This was the opportunity to do the work and Johnny and his workers did a good job. Every project has its challenges and adjustments and these projects had their challenges and adjustments but I am pleased with the work and the finished projects. I would highly recommend Johnny."

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.
