We’re back on the road again for more home shows this weekend, but first, I wanted to share this great note we got from a member today:
“…Angie’s List served us well. A representative of this company approached my wife and me at a (local big box department store) and offered us a major discount for energy-efficient windows if we would schedule a sales pitch with them. I gave them our information, but went home and checked the company’s Angie’s List and Better Business Bureau listings. I quickly discovered that this was a company we did not want to do business with. I called them the next day and canceled the appointment. Thanks for saving us from a lengthy, annoying sales pitch with no reasonable prospect of a satisfactory transaction.”
We love it when we can help! Keep those reports coming in so we can help more people avoid potential scams. It IS the season for homeowner scams, you know. Just as the spring weather brings homeowners out of the house to take stock of projects that need to be tackled, it brings out scam artists who are eager to take your money and run.
So, please, check Angie’s List before you do any kind of home improvement project. Look up the rep of your local
general contractors,
remodelers,
plumbers,
handymen or any other service pro. It’s fast, it’s easy, and best of all, it can save you time, trouble, stress and money.
