Consumer Alert: Attorney General says check out contractors before you pay for storm repairs
SEATTLE – Attorney General Rob McKenna today urged homeowners to check out contractors they hire to help repair their storm-damaged homes and remove fallen trees caused by yesterday’s 40-50 mph winds.
“A quick fix may end up costing you much more than the job is worth if the repairs aren’t done properly,” McKenna said.
All contractors who do construction work in Washington must be registered with the state, post a bond and carry general liability insurance coverage.
