## What to ask before you hire

Prices for auto repair shops depend on the size of the job, materials, access and permits. The surest way to compare is to get two or three written quotes for the same scope of work.

- Is your license active, and does it cover this exact kind of work?
- Can you show current liability insurance, and workers’ comp if you have staff?
- Who pulls the permits, and is the final inspection included in the price?
- What is included in the written quote, and what would cost extra?
- What warranty do you give, and is it written into the contract?
- When could you start, and how long will the work take?
