Why You Need a Licensed Contractor
When you’re about to take on a construction project—whether it’s a home renovation or a full-scale commercial build it can be tempting to go with the cheapest option on the table. We get it. Budgets matter. But cutting corners on who you hire to do the work can cost you a whole lot more in the long run.
There’s a big difference between a guy with a truck and a toolbox… and a licensed contractor who’s built to stand behind their work.
Here’s why working with a licensed and bonded contractor—like Metal Solutions—isn’t just the safer choice. It’s the right one.
Licensed Contractors Do the Job Right the First Time
Getting licensed isn’t just a piece of paper. It means the contractor has been trained, tested, and approved to meet strict standards for quality, safety, and code compliance. We’re not guessing out here—we’re planning, budgeting, coordinating crews, and building with precision.
At Metal Solutions, we’ve spent years honing our process so we can finish projects on time, on budget, and without cutting corners. That means no surprise costs and no sloppy work you’ll need to redo later.
You’re Protected—Not Liable
When you hire someone who isn’t licensed or bonded, guess who’s on the hook if something goes wrong? You are.
That means if a worker gets hurt on your job site or a mistake damages your property, you could be left holding the bill. Licensed contractors carry liability insurance, workers comp, and a contractor’s bond—which protects you if the job isn’t done right.
This is one of those “you don’t think it’ll happen until it does” situations and by then, it’s too late.
Your Project Stays Up to Code (and Out of Trouble)
City codes and building standards aren’t just red tape, they’re there to keep people safe, strong and legal. We’ve seen more than a few horror stories over the years where someone hired an unlicensed crew and ended up with a failed inspection… or worse, storm damage that could have been avoided.
Licensed contractors are required to follow local codes and stay up-to-date with changes. That means no guesswork, no shortcuts, and no issues when it’s time for permits or inspections.
Don’t Gamble With Your Investment
Your home or commercial project is too important to trust to someone who isn’t fully qualified to do the job right.
When you work with a licensed and bonded contractor like Metal Solutions, you’re getting more than a crew—you’re getting a promise that we’ll show up, do what we said we’d do, and stand by our work. Every time.
