Check a contractor and a down payment — free, before you sign.
Look up a California contractor's public record and compare a requested down payment against state reference points. Reading your uploaded estimate or contract is a paid report.
Check before you sign.
Start with a free contractor license check, then continue through the pre-sign dossier.
