Clear about our role
We are a matching resource, not a contractor. We hold no trade license, run no crew, keep no office, and make no claims about completed jobs or response times—our job is the introduction, not the work.
What homeowners should verify
Before hiring anyone, confirm their identity, any required trade license, insurance coverage, and permit plans yourself, and get the load basis, scope, commissioning steps, warranty terms, and payment schedule in writing.
Why local context matters
Albany's building stock reflects roughly three centuries of construction—Dutch- and English-era masonry downtown, early-twentieth-century two-families in Pine Hills, and Capital District suburbs built up largely after state government employment expanded through the 1960s. Each era carries its own assumptions about insulation, duct or pipe routing, and electrical capacity.
