Before signing a contract, get multiple bids and check for license and adequate insurance with the Contractor’s State License Board at:

FIRESafe MARIN recommends these steps for choosing the right building, landscaping, or tree-care professional.

Check for a permanent place of business, phone number, tax I.D. number, and a business license.
Request verification of current professional liability insurance.
Look for a company with a proven track record; ask for and check client references and request a list of completed projects.
Verify whether the contractor is properly licensed and bonded.
Insist on a written proposal. The proposal should include complete descriptions of the work and specifications, including approximate start and completion dates and payment procedures.
Check to see if the contractor is a member of any regional or national industry associations, such as NRCA.
Call the local Better Business Bureau to check for any complaints that have been filed.
Have the contractor explain his project supervision and quality control procedures.
Carefully read and make sure you understand any warranty offered; watch for provisions that would void the warranty.
Remember, price is only one criteria for selecting a contractor. Professionalism and quality workmanship also should weigh heavily on your decision.
