Anyone looking for contractor recommendations should check out FranklinReport.com, which compiles customer comments, or Angieslist.com, which charges $5 per month and uses credit card info to prevent multiple reviews from the same person.
If you find a contractor who looks reliable, before hiring him, do a background check. Credit bureau Experian runs Contractorcheck.com, charging $13 for a full report.
Seeking face-to-face personal recommendations is also a good idea.
