Vetting a Paver Contractor Before You Say Yes
A few plain questions protect your money and your yard. Put them to every company that gives you a bid.
What should a paver contractor be able to show you?
A paver job can take a day or two, with hoses, cleaners and sprayers close to your siding, plants and screens. It is fair to know who will be working at your house, and a reliable company can answer right away. Not sure how to start? Call (904) 980-0807.
Insurance that is current
Ask for a general liability certificate that is in force, so damage during the job goes to the company's insurer and not to your own policy.
A license that fits the work
Ask which Florida license or local registration applies to the exact work planned, and press the point if repairs are part of it.
A business you can reach
Look for a working phone number, a record of jobs in western Nassau County and one person who answers for yours.
A price on paper
Have the price, the work steps and the product names written down before anyone unloads equipment.
Does paver work near Hilliard need a license?
That depends on what the job includes. Cleaning and sealing differ from lifting and relaying pavers, so ask about licensing whenever repairs or new paver work are included. A business operating in Nassau County may also need a county local business tax receipt, which the Nassau County Tax Collector issues. For a price on the surface at your own address, send in the short form.
You can check most of it yourself. The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation runs a public license lookup, which finds a company by its name or its license number. For insurance, ask the company's agent to deliver the certificate to you directly. Questions before you choose? Call (904) 980-0807.
How can you tell a paver contractor is dependable?
They watch the sky
Sealer needs clear skies before and after the job, so a careful company checks the forecast days ahead and calls you early if the date has to move.
They name the product
They can name the sealer, describe the finish and say if it is compatible with a coat already down.
They look before they quote
They cover the full surface on foot and flag dips, peeling sealer and ponding before quoting a final number.
They protect what is nearby
They explain how cleaners and overspray stay off your plants, screens, car and any pond or ditch near the house.
