Identity and credentials

Homeowner checklist
Confirm the terms before work begins
Good decisions depend on clear written details. Use this checklist with any provider; it describes what to confirm, not a warranty or promise made by this website.
Call to confirm current coverage, provider credentials, pricing and arrival timing.
Diagnosis and scope
Ask what was observed, what remains uncertain, which work is included and what conditions could change the scope.
Price and authorization
Request written pricing before authorizing work. Understand diagnostic charges, change orders and payment timing.
Permits and inspection
Ask whether a permit or inspection applies, who obtains it and where that responsibility appears in writing.
Warranty terms
Get the covered labor and materials, exclusions, duration and claim process in writing. Do not rely on an unsupported website badge.
Completion record
Keep the final invoice, model and serial numbers, photos, permit records and maintenance instructions.
