Choosing a heating and air conditioning contractor is an important decision, whether you live here in Tampa or elsewhere. Homeowners need to find someone they can trust to get the job done right the first time, on time and on budget.

Doing a bit of research up front can help you avoid shoddy workmanship, frustrating delays — or even scams. Some pointers on what to ask when vetting a prospective contractor:

Do you have recent references for similar work? (Make certain to call the references and ask whether the contractor did high-quality work according to schedule and an agreed-upon budget.)
Are you licensed and insured? (In Florida, you can verify license information online here.)
How long have you been in business?
What is your standing with the Better Business Bureau? (In West Florida, check here.) Are you a member of the local Chamber of Commerce? (Check here for businesses in the Greater Tampa area.)
Are your technicians certified by NATE? (The North American Technician Excellence industry group tests contractors to verify they are well trained and knowledgeable in their field.)
Do you guarantee your work in writing?
Do you provide free estimates?
Do you offer financing plans?
