## Section 2 What to compare before you call

Ratings tell you whether past customers were happy. These six details tell you what you're agreeing to. Under each one is how many of the 9 transmission repair shops in this report told us.

### Total price and what it includes

Ask whether the quote includes permits, materials, cleanup and any equipment. A low number that leaves out part of the job isn't a low number.

Disclosed by **0 of 9** transmission repair shops below

### Deposit at signing

Know the amount before the first meeting. In many states a large deposit comes with legal deadlines for permits and a start date.

Disclosed by **0 of 9** transmission repair shops below

### Payment schedule

Payments should follow finished stages of work, never get ahead of it.

Disclosed by **0 of 9** transmission repair shops below

### Warranty: what kind and how long

Structural, materials, equipment and workmanship warranties are different things. Check which one the number refers to.

Disclosed by **0 of 9** transmission repair shops below

### How changes are priced

Changes after signing are where budgets drift. Ask for the method in writing: fixed price per change, or cost plus a markup.

Disclosed by **0 of 9** transmission repair shops below

### Proof of insurance

Ask for a current certificate of liability and workers' compensation insurance, sent by the insurer, before work starts.

## Section 6 Questions to ask before you sign

Each question matches a field on our sheets. If a sheet says Not provided , this is where to ask.

1.

**What exactly is in the price?** Get a line-by-line list: permits, materials, equipment, disposal and cleanup.

2.

**How much is the deposit, and what are the payment stages?** Each payment should be tied to finished work you can see.

3.

**How do you price changes after I sign?** Fixed written price per change, or cost plus a markup? What is the markup?

4.

**Which warranty covers what, and for how long?** Ask for the warranty document itself, and whether it transfers if you sell the house.

5.

**Who does the work?** Which parts are done by your own crew and which by subcontractors, and are the subcontractors licensed?

6.

**Can I see your license and a current insurance certificate?** Check the license yourself on the state's license lookup, and ask the insurer to send the certificate.

7.

**What happens if I cancel?** Before permits, after permits and after work starts: what do you keep, and what do you refund?

8.

**When could you start, and what delays the finish?** Get the start date in writing, and ask how weather and inspections are handled.
