The first concern&lt;br /&gt;is will it be covered under your home owner's insurance policy, so you may want to call&lt;br /&gt;your insurer and ask what contractors they can recommend. Also try and figure out&lt;br /&gt;where did the water damage occur in the home and could there be any electrical fires&lt;br /&gt;that could potentially start from the water damage in hand. Depending on the damage you&lt;br /&gt;may not be able to shop around so figure out quickly (or ask someone who's had water&lt;br /&gt;damage) how long can you wait for someone to clean up and limit the total damage that's&lt;br /&gt;been done. When getting quotes also ask what is the waiting list and if too long for&lt;br /&gt;your to wait to have them clean up then if more than 4 or 5 companies can be found by&lt;br /&gt;google for ex. water damage restoration 01960 then redo the contacts list from your&lt;br /&gt;search and start over.Also ask the contractor how long have they been in business and are they part of any local associations that they may be a part of. Don't think that just because they've&lt;br /&gt;been in business the longest of all the comapnies you've contacted doesn't always&lt;br /&gt;equate to the best service for the money you'll spend. Some contractors just starting&lt;br /&gt;out may be more aggressive in their quote so shop around for the best prices, and if&lt;br /&gt;more than one company is priced within a 100 or 200 dollars you may want to then ask&lt;br /&gt;them to requote with the new prices given and see if any one changes their quotes. Heck&lt;br /&gt;you can save enough for dinner for the family if if's more than 20 or 30 bucks. You may&lt;br /&gt;also want to check with your local chamber of commerce and see if there's any companies&lt;br /&gt;listed with them that they can recommend. Also ask the contractor if there's any local&lt;br /&gt;homes in your neighborhood that they have serviced in the last couple of years that&lt;br /&gt;they can give you as a reference.Finally use your own judgement in determining what's best case scenario and discuss with your spouse or significant other what seems to be the best choice.&lt;br /&gt;For a local North Shore MA recommendation, call Mike Silvia at &lt;a href="http://www.silviaclean.com/"&gt;www.silviaclean.com&lt;/a&gt; or call : (781) 953-7080 he's been in business for over 30 years and will treat you and make your home dry and clean  !!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4427467435828521390-2092540484871218391?l=silviaclean.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://silviaclean.blogspot.com/feeds/2092540484871218391/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://silviaclean.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-to-choose-local-contractor-to-clean.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4427467435828521390/posts/default/2092540484871218391'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4427467435828521390/posts/default/2092540484871218391'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://silviaclean.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-to-choose-local-contractor-to-clean.html' title='How to choose a local contractor to clean up water damage'/><author><name>frizzzdog</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12761657692984049884</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry></feed>
