You’re probably eager to get outside this summer and spend time sunbathing. There’s no better way to do that than by adding a deck to your home. However, finding the perfect deck contractor isn’t easy. Reliable Restorations, of Northampton, PA, has a list of helpful questions that you should ask anyone working on your home.

Ask Deck Contractors These 5 Questions

Are You Licensed & Insured?

It’s essential to verify that any potential deck contractor is locally-licensed to work. They also need to have sufficient insurance to pay for worst-case scenario accidents. Check with prospective contractors before you hire them to ensure they’re qualified to complete the job.

How Long Have You Been in Business?

When hiring anyone to work on your home, be sure to know their experience level. Look for contractors with at least 10 years’ background, and check their online reviews.

What Materials Do You Work With?

You likely already have an idea of what design you’d like for your deck. If you want a new technology or less-used material, find out if your contractor is familiar with it.

When Can You Start & How Long Will It Take?

In the spring and summer, contractors are extremely busy. If you have a particular time frame in mind, make sure your contractor can work around it.

Do You Offer Warranties?

Many contractors offer warranties on their work, so your investment is protected against mishaps. Ask what kind of warranties your contractor offers before you shake on it.
