The source we would like to introduce this week is the Labor & Industries contractor verification program.
Its very simple to use, first off, here is the link you can use to get started: https://secure.lni.wa.gov/verify/
You can search for the contractor you are investigating by company name, contractors license number, workers comp number or their UBI number.

The first information offered shows the legal business owners, and all contact information.
You will also be able to verify if they have active and proper bonding and insurance for your project.
Two more really important pieces of information you can verify is if a contractor has any lawsuits outstanding against their company. No contractor is perfect, but if you see multiple lawsuits that is a strong indication your not dealing with a reliable contractor. You will also be able to verify if they are current on their L&I taxes. Often if a contractor has a substantial amount of back taxes its an indication that they are financially unstable or in trouble.
If you are planning on having any type of contractor work done on your home or business make sure you take the proper steps to verify they are right for the job. We hope this tool helps you!
