Describing the job costs nothing

Nothing is measured or ordered until you say so. Useful on a first call: how many windows, what type they are, and what is wrong with them.

License: Held by the contractor and issued in Pennsylvania. Ask which name it is held under — a trading name and the licensed entity are often not the same.
Lead certification: Required by federal rule for paid work on any home built before 1978. It has a number, and the firm should give it without hesitating.
The call: Describing the job commits you to nothing. Nothing is measured or ordered until you say so.
