What To Look For: Money Back Guarantee

Why It's Important: Less than 1% of contractors nationwide offer the ultimate level of protection against potential problems a homeowner might experience with a contractor--the money back guarantee. Think of it as the equivalent of the "lemon law" for home improvement. If something goes wrong with you home improvement job that cannot be fixed through reasonable measures, the contractor agrees to refund all your money and pay to have your home restored to its original condition. This isn't a guarantee for the incompetent or incapable contractor! But to protect yourself at the highest level, insist on this important guarantee.
