4. Ask the Right Questions
Before signing, schedule a consultation and ask:
- What’s your estimated timeline and payment structure?
- How do you handle unexpected issues or delays?
- Will you manage permits and inspections?
A great contractor will answer confidently, clearly, and with transparency.
5. Understand the Estimate
A detailed quote should include:
- Labor and material breakdown
- Timeline and milestones
- Payment schedule
- Warranty details
Be cautious of quotes that seem too good to be true — the lowest price often comes with hidden costs or compromises in quality.

6. Communication Is Key
Clear communication builds trust. Your contractor should keep you updated at every stage — from design approval to installation and final inspection.
