Before you hire
- License check — Trades in Virginia are regulated; start with the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR).
- Insurance — Ask for proof of liability (and workers’ comp for larger jobs).
- Scope in writing — Materials, labor, timeline, and warranty for the specific repair.
- HOA/BCA — Exterior work may need architectural approval even when the county does not require a building permit.
