Before Hiring a Window Contractor, Look for These Red Flags

If you’re planning a window replacement soon, you’ll need to make sure that you hire the right contractor for the job. Many can easily say they’re professional, yet they’re not fully capable of backing up their claim. Some can even offer cheaper rates just for a quick profit. This is why it’s better to work with contractors who already have a good reputation in the community. Here are some of the common warning signs to look out for when hiring a window contractor:

Referrals Aren’t Provided

Many professional window contractors will typically get many reviews from their previous customers. Most reviews should be good, but you should also look for reviews coming from customers that weren’t fully satisfied. How they handle a bad review can determine whether the contractor can put their customers’ interests first to ensure satisfactory service.

They Have No Insurance

As a trusted specialist in window services, we strongly advise not to hire an uninsured contractor. Insurance is important as it provides coverage for property damage or when someone gets injured during the installation process. The best way to determine whether your contractor has insurance is to ask the person directly, and the company should provide proof of insurance.

They Rush the Window Consultation

Avoid contractors who rush through the consultation process. Don’t give in to their pressure, and move on, especially if they push you into signing a contract before giving you time to review it! Working with good window contractors means you’re able to discuss the details of your installation project. That means they’re able to listen to your concerns and answer your questions. They’ll also take their time when measuring each of your openings to make sure the new windows are a perfect fit.
