If you want help laying a driveway or building a structure using bricks, tiles, rocks, or other materials, you need to get in touch with a masonry contractor. However, before you hire one, ask them the right questions to make sure they’re the right fit for you. Make sure you ask any masonry contractor the following three questions to make sure they’re right for the job you have in mind.

What to Ask a Masonry Contractor

1. What are Your Professional Qualifications?kearny masonry contractor

The right qualifications tell you that you’re trusting your home to a team to a professional team that is equipped to handle the project. The masonry contractor should be a licensed business; this tells you they meet certain standards of practice which protect your best interests. Ideally, they should also have at least ten years of experience in the business. This is a good sign that they provide a high enough level of service.

2. Are You Insured?

Never hire a contractor who isn’t insured. Insurance coverage protects you in case of an incident. Ask about liability and worker’s compensation in particular. Their insurance should cover any damage to your property or injury to their team that may occur on your property. If they say that they’re insured, don’t just take their word for it — request proof of insurance and make sure it’s still current.

3. Do You Provide Free Estimates?

You should know what you’re going to pay before they break ground on your project. This ensures you will not have any surprises when you get the invoice. Any reputable contractor will be willing to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. Ask them to provide it in writing and itemize it so you know where the costs are coming from.
