Full Company Name

What is in a name? Often a lot more than it can sometimes seem. But you need the right name to perform the most accurate search. This is the reason for being certain you enter the Full Company Name. Please do not abbreviate. If the company name is ABC Windows and Siding Company, it is not advisable to search just 'ABC Windows.' You might get a different  company, in the same state, county, or parish. Maybe out of state. So, if the full company name of the party you are searching is ABC Windows and Siding Company, it is suggested that you enter it in your device exactly. If the name is 'The ABC Windows and Siding Company,' you might not want to omit 'The.' Whatever the full company name , this is what you enter in your search. But some might opt to circumvent spelling out the complete name of the company because of an overreliance in A.I. filling in the gap. But  that can cause the name of a similar company name to pop into view, and they risk searching the wrong one.  Be on target.

Full Name of Principal Contractor

'You can call me, Speedy' Okay. But what is her or his full name? Does Speedy own the company? Did this contractor get licensed under that name? Did  this person register the business under that name? Is that what he or she provides to the IRS when 'tax time' rolls around for the refund? If you released $8,000 using Venmo or other quick pay, and Speedy was a no show, how would you report the scandal? You might not mind calling the contractor by the nickname, but that would be absolutely unreasonable given the fact you do not know the person's real or full name. Hardly possible to search your device for Speedy and learn anything about whether he or she is rogue. So, it is vital to know the full name, especially of the principal contractor. It could be disastrous to overlook the spelling of the complete real name of a contractor, manually. Evidently, in a matter as serious as guarding against making mistakes on the person you might hire, it is critical to be precise.

Search Complaints/Reviews

Now that you have the Full Company Name, and the Full Name of the Principal Contractor [the one who actually runs the operation], you can then search your device for complaints or bad reviews. You can use either the company name or the contractor's name to spot data in relation to either or both.  Here is what you might also want to know: Even if you used the full company name in your search, if there are any published offenses about it in relation to home improvement or related domestic fraud, the full real name of the principal contractor would appear with it. This automatically occurs with published reports. The real full name can pop up simply by entering the full company name. Also, the coverse often happens when you enter the contractor's real name without entering the company name. These are inseparable on condition that public reports have been released. Either way, you will very likely learn whether the contractor you might consider hiring is worth another thought.

Nailing the Challenge

No doubt, it is a challenge for one to instinctively differentiate between incredible tradespersons and detrimental. But when you have a sure grasp of facts via credible data about them, you are more formidably prepared distinquishing between the two. You perhaps recall advanced problem-solving projects you were given at different points in your life for achieving critical results. It could have been while you were still in the traditional educational setting working towards your certificate or degree. Or perhaps it was at the work place to qualify for a promotion or different position at another location. Nevertheless, you were presented with certain facts, scenarios, and related clues for figuring it all out. But it was tricky since you were urged to bravely take the initiative to search, and in the process discover what you needed to know to finally arrive at the targeted result. It is sort of like that with the discovery technique you use to uncover what you need to know about contracting entities and the individuals who oversee their operations. It requires conscientious effort on your behalf.

Re-emphasis

Once more, but in the venacular of home improvement, a discovery technique is what you purposefully use to effectively bring to light critical facts about contracting entities and the individuals who operate them. To achieve your objective for learning more about contractors beyond what you can readily see, it is necessary to be adequately self-propelled toward using a valid discovery technique. Also the simplest method entails using your device to enter the complete name of the company and the full real name of the contractor, then along with these, search using the word ‘complaints, ’or 'reviews.' This is the most elementary associative approach to what is variously referred to as validating, or conducting a home service validation [or validation, for short]. Past-tense is validated. However each is complementary in that it references using your device to search about the reputation of a tradesperson or company in relation to credentials and documented consumer interactions. Nevertheless, usually when you seriously search for anything about the entity or individual that is not consumer-friendly, you will find it. The search strategy works at its finest when there are published complaints associated with the home service company name in relation to the contractor.

The Drill

Now let us go over this again. Generally, with regard to these home service contractors, among the clever twists to stumbling across related hidden data is through searching the unabbreviated company names and the real full names of tradespersons running them. If they were charged with home fraud at any time, under any company name, you can typically find out in this way. Let us imagine this outfit is called The Home ServiceGZ and the principal owner is John or Jill Doe. You can enter in the search engine or your device using this formula: The Home ServiceGZ - Jill Doe – complaints. Keep ‘The’ in the name as it is a significant part of its full business name. Of course this is only an example, but you can use any complete name of the contract firm and the real full name of the home service contractor you might have in mind for your project. If in the event your introduction to the company is in-person, ask for the business card. Also you can visually scan any flier or literature this individual presents for the company name if it is not on the vehicle or otherwise visible. Ask if you could keep the literature. Furthermore, some private home decision makers might be too timid to ask for and clearly record the tradesperson’s full real name. You might not want to get caught like that. Be on top of it.

Right to Know

As a word of caution, if you have the company name but fail to obtain the full name of the principal contractor, this leaves too much leeway for the person to get away with keeping you in the dark about who and what he or she really is. You will need this information for your records. As head of household, you have the right to know everything you need to about the person you are speaking with. The nickname is fine, but you might not want to let it suffice. You must know the individual’s full real name and jot it down at your own pace to ensure you can read it, then read it back to this person for extra measure. Be certain you have everything spelled correctly. Most importantly, this is your home. The person may work on your property. He or she can introduce more convenience in, on, or around your household, or chaos. The decison you make can impact everyone living under your roof. So, you have the right to know who this person really is, and one of the surest ways you can find out is by asking, and being certain you have it written correctly. Your contractor search related to this tradesperson can be incomplete without it. Get it.

Be Fully Engaged

Granted at times there are things you might not feel up to doing, but you might want to consider this: would not knowing a contractor’s real name be more important than the thousands, or tens of thousands of dollars you can lose if the company or the person proves to be detrimental? Sometimes terrible people in the contracting profession operate under different organizational names. However, when you search, if they were engaged in any published consumer offenses, their real names are apt to appear along with the name of the company under which the offenses were made. And this is irrespective of whether it is the same company. There might have been consumer deviance by the same individuals committed under similar or diverse company names. So it is most vital to fuse both business and principle contractor’s complete names. Make these inseparable. You will need both in your possession to perform the most pristine simple search possible. This is the most basic use of an effective discovery technique. Same as in the Short Version:

• The basis for learning quite a bit more about contractors while searching your device is to:

• Enter accurate data in regards to the full company name. 

• Enter the real name of the principal contractor.

• Check for any and all complaints or reviews in relation to incidences of consumer fraud.

• Practice by just thinking of contracting entities and contractors you might want to hire, then use this discovery technique to learn what some hope you will never know or what the quality pros are glad you do. Form the habit as of NOW.  Good Luck!
