The local chapter screening processes are to ensures that members qualify and meet all local and state laws.

Be aware of fliers that show up at your door, free online ads, and the person that knocks at your door. Also, not all yellow pages ads mean that those contractors are license. And, never hire one that tells you to pull the permit.

Most licensed contractors are competent, honest, hardworking and financially responsible.

Know your home improvement rights and be a responsible and informed consumer and hire a reputable contractor. Avoid being victimized by unscrupulous or unlicensed so-called contractors.
