At home, at the cottage or at work, various technical problems may arise, such as unexpected emergencies, accidents requiring quick action or the installation and repair of fixed household appliances, as well as long-term renovations to improve the comfort of the home. In these situations, professional help may be necessary.
Internet search engines make it easy to find a technical expert, but they often return hundreds of results when looking for solutions for a specific area. For example, "electrician + Skåne" yields almost 300 000 search results. So how do you choose the right expert who is reliable and knowledgeable? In this blog post, we've put together things you should consider when looking for a professional!
1. What kind of technical assistance do you need? What are your expectations for the outcome?
Before getting in touch, think carefully about the kind of help you need and the outcome you want.
In a non-urgent project, such as kitchen renovation, consider carefully which elements are essential for you to get a working whole.
When considering getting a fixed household appliance, such as an air source heat pump, updating the locking system or even changing the sauna stove, decide whether to get the equipment yourself or trust the technician's choice.
Whatever the work commissioned, when you have created a plan in advance of what you want, it is easier to also ensure that the work commissioned corresponds to your expectations and needs as accurately as possible.
✔ Remember that you can always contact the 24 Center even if you are not quite sure how to handle the challenge.
2. check the technician's background
Ask the technician about their experience with similar projects that match your plans. For example, if you are renovating a bathroom, ask how many similar renovations they have done in the past and what results have been achieved. Experience is often a sign of reliability and competence.
✔ At 24 Center, when concluding cooperation agreements, it is ensured that the members of our network have sufficient experience.
3. check that the technician has the necessary permits and resources for the task
Make sure that the chosen profession has all the necessary permits to carry out the renovation work. For example, an electrician should have a valid certificate from ECY.
Also make sure that the technician's schedule allows for your convenience. It's frustrating if a technician promises to start work quickly, but you have to wait weeks for the bathroom renovation to begin or the new sauna stove is left out in the wind and rain, day after day.
✔ At 24 Center, the conclusion of cooperation agreements ensures that the members of our network have the required permits and certificates.
4. check that technicians have valid insurance
Check that the technician has valid insurance to cover any damage during the renovation. This will protect you, your property and the technician from any damage or accident during the work.
P.S. If there is damage to your home during the renovation, it is always a good idea to check with your insurance company what damage your home insurance covers.
✔ At 24 Center, we have ensured that the members of our network have liability insurance that is valid, and in addition, 24 Center has its own insurance. So as our customer, you can rest assured that if an accident occurs, you don't have to worry about more than is necessary.
5. ask for recommendations and check if they are valid
Search for reviews and recommendations about technicians online. You can also ask friends, neighbors or family members about technicians they have been satisfied with after work done. It is good to seek information from several sources, ensuring that the recommendations are accurate.
✔ At 24 Center we have a high quality standard for our network of technicians. After each commissioned work, we conduct a customer satisfaction survey and actively communicate with the client about how the quality of the work has been met and the cooperation has worked with the member of our network.
24 Center provides the right technologies for your home's technological challenges
Choosing the right technician can be time-consuming, especially if your experience in technical matters is limited or when the pressures of everyday life take priority over non-urgent matters. It is also common that younger generation owners of newly built homes do not necessarily have people around them with experience or knowledge of qualified technical professionals. Even those who have moved to a new location may not yet have information about good technicians, and when it comes to decorating a new home, help is most needed.
So don't be afraid to contact 24 Center and tell us about your home maintenance plans or sudden technical problems. 24 Center has profiled itself as a service provider with high quality standards, so the background of each member of our network has been checked and ensured that the necessary permits and insurances are valid.
