"They did an excellent job."

"I've been living in New York City for over 20 years and have worked with other contractors before, and have never found the right fit until now. Hussein is a great collaborator and understood exactly what we needed and how to get it done right. He was always easy to reach via text or phone. The materials he used were of top quality. His team worked non-stop for two weeks in my loft while Hussein checked in daily. I was working from home a lot during this work and could see the dedication to details and how hard they worked. They were meticulous, always on time, polite, quiet, (and non-smokers)! Once the job was done the bill matched the quote. Everything looks so beautiful now, even better than I had imagined! The total job included building a room, which included framing, sheetrock, plumbing, electric, painting entire loft and demolition."

We are first time home owners and Mr. Wiskup was extremely helpful every step of the way. He is fast, accurate and reliable. It was a pleasure doing business with him and we unreservedly give him our highest recommendation."

"My experience was supported by a foundation of excellence and expertise. Waylon has been the ultimate professional throughout the entire project operating with a consistent sense of urgency, but always under control . He is courteous, friendly and truly loves the process of delivering a job well done. I highly recommend Paintings and Projects NYC!!"

"Anderson is a miracle worker, installing a shower in our basement bathroom when other contractors said it couldn’t be done or would be outrageously expensive. Anderson did the work in a short time, cleaned up all the debris and left it spotless. His cost was very reasonable and he used his contractor’s discounts for the materials. He communicates very well so I knew when he was coming and going. I was consulted at every step. I highly recommend Home Innovation!!!"

"I was super impressed with PRHI from start to finish. They built several interior walls and doorways to reconfigure some space in my apartment to better suit my family?s needs. They were extremely professional, organized and efficient. They worked well with the staff in my co-op and respected the building?s rules and regulations. They were easy to communicate with and super responsive to my needs. I can?t say enough good things about my experience. I didn?t have the time or patience to do much research or obtain a bunch of estimates. I simply found PRHI on Angi, had a good feeling upon meeting them and just went with it. I have no regrets :)"

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.
