What to look for beyond star ratings

Why Reviews Alone Aren't Enough

Reviews can be helpful, but they don't tell you everything. Here's what to check:

License verification – a review won't confirm a license. Check NJ's database yourself.

Insurance coverage – reviews don't prove insurance. Ask for certificates.

Permit history – reviews rarely mention permits. Ask the contractor directly.

Contract terms – reviews don't show the fine print. Read the contract before signing.

No fabricated claims
