It is that time of year again and many of us are working new projects. We have had a few people making their rounds and asking for jobs, such as paving your driveway and landscaping:

1) You will want to make sure that you receive a written quotation for the work – one that you thoroughly understand.
2) Check to see if the company has insurance, and ask for and check their references.
3) If you accept their quotation, have them provide a contract with the terms and contract value clearly spelled out.

Doing these 3 things can potentially save you a lot of money!
