What is the Contractors Recovery Fund and how can it help a consumer?

Despite taking all necessary precautions in selecting a contractor and signing a contract, people can end up with an unsatisfactory job. The first step if this occurs is to take legal action and obtain a judgement against the contractor. If unable to collect, a client can seek compensation from the Contractors Recovery Fund which is establised and administered by the state, BUT ONLY IF YOUR CONTRACTOR IS LICENSED BY THE STATE. This is yet another reason to hire a licensed contractor! The Contractors Recovery Fund is a fund that all licensed contractors contribute to through our licensing fees.

What's a mechanic's lien?

Any licensed contractor or material supplier for a building project can go to court and try to take possession of your property if he or she is not paid. This is called a "mechanic's lien". When there is a problem with an element of the project that leads to an impass in the relationship a client and a contractor share, state law allows clients to pay any subcontractor directly and deduct that amount from the total contract price; or a client can withhold from the contractor, for 120 days after all work is completed, the amount needed to pay the subcontractors directly, unless the contractor has given the client waivers signed by the subcontractors that give up their right to file a lien against your property when they are paid. In most cases, your contractor must give you written notice of an intent to file a lien if the contractor is not paid. This notice is required whenever subcontractors or material suppliers are employed; it must either be included in the written contract or delivered separately to a client within 10 days after the work is agreed upon. In short, this contractor's notice must be given properly for the contractor to have the right to a lien against a customer property.

Can I buy materials for the project?

Yes, with some exceptions. The basic idea is that Golden Rule Remodeling is willing to work with whatever desires our clients have. Materials warranties do not apply to customer procured materials, and as long as our clients understand that, we in many cases will work with the client buying assorted materials on their own.

What is the overall goal of Golden Rule Remodeling?

We have created a sustainable company for the express purpose of impacting our client's lives in positive ways through providing quality work through a company you can trust. Regardless of the size of the projects we do for our clients, no one job will ever allow us to retire. Knowing that, we work with the intention of being referred to others. This is the way we insure our clients are truly satisfied and that we continue to be a successful contracting company. You may contact us if you’d like further information.
