By Maryanne Goff


Although unexpected, there might come a time and day when you will turn on your bath tub only to find it is not working. Bath tabs, like any other mechanical objects are prone to breaking down at times. It is at times like these that you will be forced to hire the services of a bath tub expert, unless you are one. However you might not find the best there is straight off the bat, unless you know what qualities to look out for. To find the best hot tub repair in Portland there are a number of quality checks that you can consider.

There are three categories of bathtub problems; mechanical, electrical or leaks. Mechanical problems include the water not staying warm even if the cover is firmly in place and the electricity is on. An example of an electrical problem on the other hand is the breaker flipping when you turn on the tub. Leaking is self explanatory. After identifying the problem you can then call the contractor.

Before you start short listing the candidates you should first consider the sources of the candidates. The most recommended ones are those provided by trusted friends and family. For one they are sure to give you the honest view of the services and prices from the company. Also you get to see the contractors work. However there are sources for you to consider if your sources are advertisements et al.

First is the legitimacy of the company. Some contractors are not register but still provide the services. They might be cheap and convince you that a license is not all that important, do not be trapped. If they do not honor their part of the agreement you might not be able to sue them in the courts of law. Look for their name in the state registrars list of registered contractors. If it is not present then drop them.

You should also be able to determine the experience they have. This can be done by looking them up in the internet. You should be able to see when they started on that line of work and how much progress they have made so far. If it is significant then it should be safe to say that they are good at what they do. You should also look for their online profile at Better Business Bureau to see if there are any complaints against them.

You should also not look at only one contractor. It would be better if you asked for four or more bids from different service provides. Working with one would limit you to the services they provide and their charges whereas working with a significant number will give you the advantage of comparison which will result into a more refined decision.

It is also recommended that you put down your agreement in writing. The contract should include several details; the stipulated finishing time, the cost of the service and also the amount to be paid after the client is satisfied. This will help you in a court of law suppose anything happens.

Bad repairs might be costly and a cause of heartaches. However if you want to save yourself from this you have to put in a little work in looking for the best. Professionals are always ready to handle any hot tub repair in Portland.
