Bathroom exhaust fan; Is a good idea

Bathroom exhaust fans are very important tool in the prevention of mold and mildew in your bathroom. A lot of times I go into homes and see issues like bathroom tiles falling off the wall, walls bowing out and mold and mildew growing on the bath ceiling. This is all preventable with a good quality exhaust fan.

How to find a reliable handyman or contractor

I posted this because, I want folks out there to protect themselves from being
burned by some of the knuckleheads out there. WorkPros Handyman gets a lot of calls
from folks that have paid for work and not received what they pay for along with a
lot of shoddy workmanship. Folks, I want to stress this before I post the tips. The lowest price out there is not always the best deal!!! Sometimes that low price handyman
or contractor can end up costing you more. Some examples 1) someone gets hurt and the handyman isn't carrying Workers' Comp., then your on the hook. 2) The contractor or handyman does bad work and you end up having to pay twice to get the job done right.
these are just couple examples. Well here's the list.
1. Prices that seem too good to be true usually are too good. Some "great deals" will involve low-quality work or substandard materials. Some low bidders plan to make up profits on inevitable change orders.
2. Do not buy from an unknown company selling door to door.
3. Resist the high-pressure sales technique. "Act now" offers are rarely that limited in a remodel project.
4. Avoid moonlighters - their work may not be quality. In some cases, the goods and materials they are using may be stolen from their employer or another source. They also may not be properly licensed or have proper insurance.
5. A sign in your neighbor's yard during a project does not mean that your neighbor will be happy with the result and recommends the handyman.
6. A referral may not be worth much if the person judging does not have a good ability to critique. Even bad repair companies can have a good job. A good company can have a bad job on a bad day.
7. Check references and other sources. The BBB is a start but it is only a start. Check the Secretary of State to see if the handyman/contractor is incorporated. Find the county of their registered agent and prinicpal office. Check the legal records for the courts in those counties (both the individual and the corporation) - many court files are now online. Check the state license (if one is required). Check counties where the contractor works to see if owners have sued or been sued.
8. Avoid price comparisons that are "apples to oranges."
9. A good handyman will have a good contract. Contracts are the legal documents that give you you the clear rights.and remedies. A good contract details the specifications of the project. Handshake deals are basically costly battles waiting to be fought.
10. Avoid large up-front payments. But some additional deposits are reasonable if required by a contractor when items are special ordered or non-refundable. If possible, use credit card to make payments so that you may avail yourself of additional legal protection.
