In Baton Rouge, LA, homeowners are trying to keep their homes cool most of the year. However, there are a few weeks here and there where heating is equally as important as cooling. To maintain these systems and keep them running effectively, or to replace and update these systems in your home, you need a good Baton Rouge HVAC contractor. Here’s what to look for in a really good Baton Rouge HVAC contractor.
Lots of Experience
You need to hire a contractor that has years of experience with Southern systems. You don’t want somebody fresh out of a training program, and you don’t want somebody who is more accustomed to fixing furnaces in northern climes. Make sure your contractor has the right amount of experience with the new systems you want to install in your home.
License, Insurance, and Bonded
Contractors are required to have a license by law. Ask to see the license or license number of the contractor. Contractors are also required to carry insurance. They have to pay for this out of their own pockets, and they should not be including it in the estimate they give you for the work you want done. Bonded means that they are required to supply you with a document that shows that the work they do is backed by a bond agent. If they fail their contract with you, they lose money. While a contractor doesn’t have to be bonded to perform HVAC work on your home, it is highly recommended. If you want a fair and expert estimate, contact us today.
