Protecting
Yourself from Contractor Fraud
Since Katrina, contractor fraud
has been a serious problem in
New Orleans. To protect
yourself from fraud, take the
following precautions:
-
Be
very hesitant about giving
money up front.
-
Create a written contract
that states every task that
the contractor will
complete.
-
Ask for proof of insurance.
The best way to do this is
to ask for a certificate of
general liability insurance
with the homeowner’s name
listed as a certificate
holder. With this document,
the insurance company will
contact the homeowner if the
contractor cancels his
policy.
-
Check the contractor’s
references. You can also go
to the Better Business
Bureau website to see if any
complaints have been filed
against them:
