What to do before you hire in Tennessee
- Ask for the licence number and check it yourself against Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors (Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance, Division of Regulatory Boards). A contractor who will not give you the number is telling you something.
- Get the full scope and price in writing before any money changes hands, and never pay the full amount up front.
