Before signing a contract with a home remodeling contractor, it’s important to ask several key questions to ensure you are making an informed decision. Here are some important questions to ask:
- Can you provide references and examples of previous work?
- Are you licensed, insured, and bonded?
- How will you manage the project and communicate with me throughout the process?
- What is your timeline for completion, and what is your process for handling delays?
- What is your process for handling changes or unexpected problems that may arise during the remodel?
- Who will be responsible for obtaining the necessary permits and inspections?
- What is your payment schedule, and what is the total cost of the project?
- What warranties or guarantees do you offer on your work?
Asking these questions will give you a better understanding of the contractor’s qualifications, experience, and approach to the project, and will help you to make an informed decision when choosing a contractor for your home remodel. remember this is not an all inclusive list, but a roadmap to get you thinking.
