We never print license numbers: look them up on the official portal. ## Hiring home inspectors in Clearwater: what to check yourself 1. **Ask for the license number and look it up.** The license should be in the company's or owner's name, not a third party who lends it. 2. **Get the insurance certificate sent from the insurer to you.** Ask for liability and, if they have employees, workers' compensation. 3. **Make sure the contractor pulls any permit.** If you are asked to pull it as the owner, treat that as a red flag. 4. **Tie payments to finished stages** rather than paying most of the price up front. 5. **Get the scope, price and warranty in writing** before work starts.
