Planning a home renovation? Looking for a builder to construct your new home? There are many experienced and reliable contractors at work in your community – highly skilled professionals who do business the right way. Unfortunately, not all contractors play by the same rules. Some cut corners to offer lower prices. They promise you a "good deal " as long as nothing is written down and you pay in cash. These cash deals can mean a lot of risk for you. Contractors who do not do business properly do not protect you from accidents or their mistakes. If there is a work-related injury or damage to your home, you could face lawsuits and financial loss. You could be responsible for your contractor ’s unpaid bills. And you could be stuck with work that is incomplete or badly done. While serious, these risks are easy to avoid. Before you agree to let anyone work on your home, take these three simple steps: know who you are dealing with, make sure you are protected from risks, and always Get it in Writing! Contact the Canadian Home Builders ’ Association – Victoria at 383-5044 to obtain the complete brochure. |
