- Abstract:
This article offers consumer tips for hiring contractors for home repairs. The article warns consumers to avoid contractors who appear too eager to sign a contract and work immediately, suggesting that these individuals are often unreliable. Experts suggest researching contractors who have done similar work to what the consumer needs done, shopping for a low-rate home equity line, and signing a contract that allows the consumer to pay in portions as the work is completed.
