6 Ways to Find the Right Long Island Masonry Company

Sept. 7, 2011 - PRLog -- Suffolk County is a relatively rural area though it still has plenty of choices when you are in need of masonry contractors.

A lot of homeowners make the mistake of choosing a Masonry basing on their lowest bid for the project. Before you decide which company to hire, you need to check out the contractors and short list the candidates. After all, you are going to entrust one of your most important possessions, which is your home.

So, where will you begin your search? Here are six simple ways for you to find the right masonry company on Long Island.

1. Research

Educating yourself will help you make a list of requirements for your project. Online forums on topics such as renovations and repair will be good places to start. By showing the contractor your knowledge about the project, you eliminate the risk that they will underestimate you and possibly get you to play their game.

2. Referrals

There is a wealth of information waiting to be discovered around you such as friends and family who have done the same project like yours. This is helpful in narrowing down your search.

3. Reputation

The Better Business Bureau is the best place to check about the reputation of the company you are considering. You could also consult supply stores for their recommendation or review.

4. Certification

Check whether the company has been accredited by the MCAA or Mason Contractors Association of America. This proves that they have completed their classes, exam and continuing education.

5. Visit

Once you have shortlisted the candidates, make them come to the job site. Evaluate their reactions, their recommendations and their abilities to assess the project.

6. Quotes

If the contractor gave you a good impression, you can ask for a free quote on the overall cost of the project. Obtain at least three quotes from different contractors to compare. Be objective when you make your comparisons to get the best deal.

Only hire the certified, skilled and experienced masonry contractor in Suffolk County. Best of all, hire the one you can trust or be comfortable with especially the one that can give you peace of mind.
