What to verify regardless of company

1. License verification — every Minnesota residential contractor needs license per § 326B.805
2. Insurance certificates — $2M+ general liability and workers’ comp; get COI naming you
3. Manufacturer certifications — top tier (Master Elite, Platinum, etc.) means access to better warranties
4. BBB record — look at complaint patterns, not just rating
5. Real Google and Yelp reviews — read 10-20 to look for patterns
6. Local Minnesota address — not P.O. boxes or out-of-state
7. Itemized written estimates — not “ballpark”
8. Workmanship warranty in writing for at least 5-10 years
9. Permit included in scope
10. Manufacturer warranty paperwork delivered after install

Red flags regardless of company

• Door-to-door sales after a storm
• “We can do it for cash, skip the deductible”
• Pressure to sign immediately
• P.O. box addresses or out-of-state license plates
• Estimates dramatically below market
• No license numbers on the truck or estimate
• Bad or hidden BBB record
