A Word of Advice
from the Building Inspector

Protect Your Investment!!!!!

Always obtain quotes from a minimum of three contractors. Check to make sure the contractors have the necessary licenses, insurance, etc. Have the contractor supply you with a list of references. Check out these references, don't ignore them. They can be an excellent source of information about the contractor. Check with the Better Business Bureau and the Massachusetts Attorney General to see if any complaints have been filed against the contractor in the past. Then make your best decision from the information you collect. If you follow these few steps you may avoid costly delays or problems in the future.

Dig Safe

Dig Safe is an important step if you plan on doing any excavation on your property. You or your contractor should call Dig Safe to locate all underground utilities. Dig Safe number is 1-888-DIG-SAFE. Dig Safe requires 72 hours notice so they can get in contact with all utilities. If you fail to contact Dig Safe and you damage underground utilities you could be liable to pay for the repairs. This could cost you hundreds or maybe thousands of dollars just for not making a phone call. Dig Safe is a free service.
