## Hiring auto repair shops in Gainesville: 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.
