Home-mod checks
Contractor licensing
- For Illinois, verify contractor classification and home contractor license requirements for structural work.
- Insurance proof and workmen coverage should be reviewed before acceptance.
Permits and compliance
- Ramps and stair changes often trigger permit and inspection checks; verify before mobilization.
- Keep city permit IDs and inspection numbers ready before final payment milestones.
Operational process quality
- Use phased payment schedules with measurable acceptance criteria on each phase.
- Request before/after walkthrough notes for each scope element.
Recommended proof points
Use one verified proof source per step (license status, permit status, contract scope, inspection plan). If this is unclear, use our providers queue and ask for review before listing/public updates.
Not legal advice. Rules change and can vary by county or municipality. Verify details on official state and local pages before finalizing service plans.
