Choose a contractor

1. Define the problem and your preferred outcome before requesting estimates.
2. Confirm the business name and CCB record directly through the official CCB search.
3. Ask for a written scope, price basis, schedule assumptions, permits, and change-order process.
4. Compare like-for-like scopes; the lowest number may omit material work.
5. Read and retain the contract before authorizing work.
