"Sabino was great to work with. He was professional and thorough when initially inspecting roof. He completed a major job with tear off of layers of asphalt and cedar shingles. He installed the new roof with quality products. Most importantly he worked well with us in a honest manner when issues arose to rebuild a chimney and replace beams on a rotting porch. His prices were very reasonable. He did a solid job cleaning up the area when finished. It is never an easy experience to have an old roof torn off and replaced, but Sabino and his workers made the experience positive."

"Ed was professional and personable. I enjoyed working with him. He was very knowledgeable about the project. Suggested composite decking for the stairs and raisers, which makes taking care of the stairs a breeze. Handrails are beautifully made. I would definitely hire Ed again."

"What can I say, these guys were my first pick for plumbing and first H.A. hire. Not only did they come within the hour of me calling them back but they are extremely thoughtful and professional. They fixed my problems and explained what they were doing while I watched, it was a great learning experience and it showed their professionalism. The price for their work (4hrs) plus equipment was extremely fair and didn't burn a hole in my expenses. All in all, these guys were a great choice for plumbing needs and I hope to hire them again should the need arise. Thanks guys! -Mitch from Lackawanna"

"We hired SunnySide Realty to paint walls ceilings trim and do some patching in a number of rooms in our house. Nic was professional, tidy, and respectful of our home. The work was amazing! And when I was doubtful about colors, Nic offered his professional advice to help me decide. I will definitely recommend SunnySide to family and friends."

"Brian did an amazing job on our bathroom. He finished a complete remodel of our bathroom - starting with a demo down to the studs, in a couple weeks. He was always on time or early, he gave us daily updates on where he was in the process, made excellent recommendations to save us money on supplies, and was meticulous with the details. Not only is his work beautiful but heâ s just an all-around nice guy & we would highly recommend him to anyone!"

Frequently asked questions
- It’s important that you verify their license is still in good standing. Also keep in mind that certain states or provinces don’t require licensing if the job is under a certain dollar amount.
- You can find a list of your state’s licensing requirements on the HomeAdvisor website. Before you get to work with the pro, make sure their qualifications are current and acceptable to you.
- It is always a good idea to get a copy of the pro’s insurance certificate for future records, and in case anything happens. This is a good way to feel more secure in your home project, and to weed out potential scammers.
HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
- Have you completed a job like this before?
- Do you have a list of references I can contact?
- When are you able to start the job?
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
- How many years of experience do you have?
- What’s your permanent business address?
- Are you licensed to work in my area?
- When did you earn your business license?
- How do you handle warranty service complaints?
- Do you have worker’s compensation, property damage and personal liability insurance?
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
