"Laura Albert is a five star professional. Laura did a masterful job transforming our unfinished basement into a lovely guest suite, bath, and laundry in a near-impossibly tight space. After designing the perfect floor plan to maximize grace and function, she devised plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems that saved us time and money. Laura provided detailed plans and drawings down to the exact fixtures and appliances, and worked with our contractors to ensure smooth and easy permitting. She was always available to answer questions and a pleasure to work with. Her efforts gave us one of the nicest spaces in our home and the shower everyone vies for. I will use Laura on any future projects and unreservedly recommend her to anyone."

"James and Daniel are two of the most upfront and honest people I have ever met. We were very pleased with there workers and the cleanliness of the job site at the end of each day. During the framing inspection, the county inspector commented on how nice it was to see good craftsmanship and such attention to detail. I enjoyed the entire process and I would recommend these guys without a doubt."

Yu listened intently to our project objectives and came up with thoroughly prepared implementation plans. Her skill and know-how in the project, as well as her contacts in the business made the renovation considerably less daunting. Yu plans hewn closely to our timeline and budget. I would recommender her without any reservation."

Mr. Wisam Rabeea, in particular, has done a fantastic job in drafting my projects plans and has managed implementations of the projects. He also recommended an exceptionally capable, prompt, honest and fair contractor who is now doing the work. I highly recommend hiring PEC for planning and implementations of your constructions and home improvement projects."

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.
