Hi James, my husband and I admin Wisconsin Contractor & Handyman Club on Facebook, a wild, wild west of contractors and property owners coming together. Reviews are shared in the group as well. From running this resource, I notice that the contractor/handyman world is ever changing. Who I recommended 2 years ago may not be a person I recommend any more :)
You are welcome to ask in the group for what you are looking for.
Top things to get before hiring:
1. Copy of driver's license
2. CCAP check
3. W-9 (if over $500 and not a inc)
4. Lien Waiver--anytime payment is made
5. Insurance
6. Verication of all contractors that will be on job site--just ask are they doing the work themselves or subbing
7. If a license is required, DSPS check
8. Formal quote or contract in writing with clear and detailed expectations of each party.
