Don’t select a company at random from the yellow pages.

To help identify competent and qualified contractors, contact the Nevada State Contractors Board.

Don’t fall into the trap of hiring a company that is able to offer a cheaper price because they operate without a license, and/or don’t ‘pull’ required permits, or don’t carry adequate insurance.

If you take these precautions, you will have peace of mind knowing that you are not dealing with a “fly-by-night” company that can “hang you out to dry”.
