Unprofessional, pricey and tries to push as many workers on you as possible. His crew left a filthy mess in my house by not using drop cloths. Did not repair walls as agreed upon. They left with product I paid for and made excuses for it. Rusty spackle tools. He sent a 75 year old tile guy referral for an estimate that wanted to charge me over 3000 for a bathroom partial wall with small floor - by far the most outrageous quote I got. He claims to be a builder and has a smoke and mirrors cheap construction website with no address or bio. He's trying to act fancy but it's just a failed attempt to compete with qualified, reputable builders on the east end. Buyer Beware.
Always ask for references, and always check them. Keep in mind though that the only references you'll get are people who the contractor is certain will give him a good review. You'd also be well advised to check online review sources in Moriches as well, which will give you a broader view of customer satisfaction for a given company.
This really only matters if you have a preference, but it is good to ask. If you have a strong ideological belief about unions or nonunions, it's perfectly acceptable to make a decision based on the preference.
The question is great for some industries and non-applicable for others. A general contractor, for example, will by definition employ subcontractors. Most Moriches Drywall companies do not, but there are exceptions. You should always ask this question to your service providers. If they do use subcontractors, ask if they're all licensed and insured independently.
These first two questions should only relate to services or good purchased directly from the service provider. Many products carry their own warranties, like roofing shingles or siding. It's useful to know what these warranties cover as well as how long they last. The "warranty agent" question is important, because often warranty agents work with the manufacturer to get you repairs under warranty at a much lower price.
You'll always want to ask how long the company has been in business in Moriches. While this isn't a guarantee that the company will do good work, companies with longevity on their side must be doing something right. That being said, there are newer companies that do great work. If the company is under three years old, ask where the owner was employed before and for how long. If he/she has a long history of employment, it's reasonable to infer that he or she decided to go into business for themselves after so many years of experience.
