"We were referred to Remodel Works from co-worker. We knew that they had to be a quality operation from that referral alone. We however had no idea the quality and care we would receive from the conception to fruition. Mr. Chihi, the owner, was happy to provide us with his personal cell phone number that he assured us would be answered, and it was. He treated us with the utmost respect. His carpentry skills were tested with several unique situations. No one knows the effort put forth to achieve the end results. No task was too big or too small Certain areas were not visible to us, such as wiring and plumbing so we had to take his word on the actual progress. We feel they never deceived us in what was going on with the job’s internal workings. He answered every question and gave us extreme confidence in the overall renovation. Every person that came in the house knew the rules of the residence and they were always followed He never cut corners in cleaning up and he stayed till the day’s tasks were completed to his high standard. He and Bryan worked together flawlessly. He was always courteous and made us feel like our interruptions were not a bother on his busy workday. He showed up on time everyday prepared to work immediately. They never stood around drinking coffee and socializing. Their mission was to get us up and running as quickly and efficiently as possible. They took this mission to heart and stayed on schedule. At the end of the workday they cleaned the area up. We added elements to the project as we moved along. He was always professional and was able to accommodate us and not compromise their time frame to start the next job. He made us feel like we were Remodel Works' only client, which of course we knew wasn’t the case, but we felt like we were their highest priority. Remodel Works was in our home alone and unsupervised part of the time. We never felt uncomfortable trusting them with our pets and property. When they finally packed up the last day it was somewhat bittersweet. However, we know they will be back. We will probably never use another contractor as long as we own our home. He is really that good. And the project result, was better than I ever conceptualized. Applause, applause Mr. Chichi. See you at the exterior addition."

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.
