Consumer Tips & Expectations
Remodeling projects may change the living conditions in your home for the duration of the project. While most of the changes will only be minor inconveniences, you should know beforehand the problems you may encounter when construction begins. 

The most important thing to remember is that quality takes time. This may mean waiting an extra day or two for special order materials, or waiting for a reliable specialty trade contractor. We know that delaying construction for a few extra days is not an easy thing to do, but ensuring your project is completed to your total satisfaction will be worth it in the end.

You have heard the expression that even the best made plans can come unraveled. No matter how well you and your contractor plan your construction project, chances are there may be a conflict along the way. As long as you are aware that minor problems like delays and weather issues are a possibility, you will be better prepared if they occur.

The homeowner who is prepared for such inconveniences will not find them quite as inconvenient as the homeowner who plans to continue living as if nothing is taking place in their home. The best way to prepare for your construction project is to talk to your contractor. He knows exactly what will be taking place during construction and can help settle some of the concerns you may have.

Steps you should take when looking for a contractor
1.) Ask for a list of references.
2.) Call the references. Here is what to ask them:
     —How was the quality of workmanship?
     —How well did the contractor stay on budget according to the original budget?
     —Did the contractor use a change order form for any changes?
     —How timely was the contractor during the course of the project?
     —Were you happy with their attitude when problems would arise?
     —Did they keep the job site clean and safe?
     —Would you ever use the contractor again?
3.) Communication is key! When you interview a potential contractor, you should feel comfortable
     with speaking with him. After all, he will be working on you biggest investment!
     Communication is the key to a productive client/contractor relationship.
4.) How long has the contractor been in business? We recommend you hire a contractor with five
     or more years of experience.
5.) Verify insurance.
6.) Do not hire based on price alone! If the price sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
