If you’re planning to hire Ormond Beach aluminum contractors, then it’s important to do your research carefully.  Regardless of whether you’re hiring for new windows, a carport, or a pool enclosure, you need a service you can trust at a price you can afford.  Here are some of the key points you should check and how A First Class Aluminum stacks up against them.

Where is the contractor located?

It’s highly advisable to check for a physical address and regular telephone number as well as online contact options such as email and chat.  This indicates that a company is legitimate.  It also lets you see exactly where they are based.  In other words, you can check if they’re based in Florida or just offering services in Florida.

More importantly, you can check if they have a Certified Building Contractor License.  A First Class Aluminum is a licensed building contractor, number 1251835.  One of the requirements of this licensing is that contractors have insurance.  It’s highly advisable to stick to Ormond Beach aluminum contractors that are fully insurance and A First Class Aluminum is.

How long has the contractor been in business?

Ormond Beach aluminum contractors stay in business by keeping their customers happy.  That’s exactly how A First Class Aluminum has stayed in business for over 20 years.  Over recent years, we’ve been gathering online reviews from our customers.  We have them collected on our website for your convenience.

A First Class Aluminum has every intention of being in business for many decades to come.  That means you can trust us to make good on our warranty if you ever need us to.  We offer a three-year warranty as standard plus an extended ten-year warranty on parts and services.

Does the contractor give a clear estimate?

Most construction jobs need to be assessed on-site before Ormond Beach aluminum contractors can give you an accurate estimate of costs and timeframe.  You need to be able to understand these fully.  This is the only way you can make fair comparisons between contractors.

It is perfectly common for contractors to state that an estimate is only valid for a certain length of time.  This should, however, be long enough for you to examine the estimate thoroughly at your leisure.  A reputable contractor will never hassle you to agree to an estimate.  They will, however, be happy to answer any questions you have.

Does the contractor give a clear, written contract?

An estimate is essentially an offer to do business.  It needs to be turned into a contract to be valid.  That contract should be in writing and it should be written clearly.  At A First Class Aluminum, we ensure that all contracts are both clear and reasonable.  You will have ample opportunity to assess them before you sign.  If you see something in our contract you don’t like, please let us know and we’ll be happy to discuss it with you.
