Learn What to Ask Remodelers During the Interview
Hiring the right contractors for a full home renovation is an intimidating task. You’ll likely be giving your keys to them and trusting them to respect your property, family, and time. As hopeless it sounds, it doesn’t have to end in a nightmare if you make the right choices. Below are the questions you should ask every remodeler you want to hire. All of these questions give you a better understanding of their organization and peace of mind that you’re working with the right company.
Do you know where the utility shutoffs are situated?
This is something that’s often overlooked, but if you’re not home when the remodeler is working, he needs to know where the utility shutoffs are. Your water, gas, and power are things that they’ll have to locate. It’s important to let the contractor know about things that can’t lose power such as freezers or aquariums.
Will there be any disturbance to my surroundings?
If you have troublesome neighbors, then let your contractor. While this isn’t a serious problem, at least inform them of anything they must know about the surrounding area, including neighbors who will be affected by the noise or who might complain. Before doing bathroom makeovers, talk to your neighbors about the project.
How will you ensure the safety of my kids/pets?
Your pets are of the family so be sure that your contractor is aware of them. Kids can get out by gates or doors that are left open, pets may escape through open doors, and it’s also a safety issue since they may not be comfortable around strangers. If your kids or pets have to stay in the house while constructing the custom bathrooms, secure them properly and let the contractor know that they’re there.
How do you communicate during the project?
Good communication is the key to any project, especially those in your home. Find out how and when you call the contractor for any concerns or questions.
