Home improvements, such as siding and roof replacement, are more likely to succeed when performed by skilled professionals. Price isn’t the only factor you should consider when assessing your potential siding installers. You must also take into consideration their experience, expertise and the products they use.  

Here’s what to look for before hiring a siding contractor. 

License

Proof of license is the first thing you should request to see from your prospective contractor. States and cities could have different licensing requirements, and a reputable professional will not hesitate to show proof that the team is properly documented. You wouldn’t be able to obtain the permits necessary for your project if your siding contractor doesn’t have a license. Without them, you could face legal consequences.

Insurance

You must only hire an insured contractor, whether getting new siding or a gutter repair. With insurance, you can avoid being held responsible for damage or accidents during your project. If your contractor doesn’t have insurance and one of their workers gets injured while installing your siding, you might have to cover their medical expenses.

Detailed Estimate

You want to obtain at least three estimates from different companies. Doing so will give you an idea about the cost of your new siding and help you determine which contractor is fit for the job. The quote should include the cost of labor, materials and other fees associated with your project. 

Warranties

Another thing to ask your prospective siding installers is what warranties they carry. Reliable contractors who are confident in their skills will offer comprehensive coverage. Moreover, siding is a significant investment, so you want to be backed by a strong and lengthy warranty.
