When you hire a remodeler, you are buying
a service rather than a product. The quality of the service the
remodeler provides will determine the quality of the finished project
and your satisfaction with it. Listed below are some tips that
may be helpful when choosing a remodeler.
Does the remodeler....
- Maintain a permanent mailing
address, a phone number, and a pager or answering system?
(You will want to be able to reach the remodeler quickly and
easily - especially at critical times.)
- Possess a trustworthy reputation
among customers, peers, and people involved in all aspects of the
industry? (Please view our client
testimonials.)
- Specialize in particular types of
products?
- Arrange for the building permit?
(The person who obtains the permit is the contractor of record and
therefore responsible for the work.)
Before you sign a contract ....
- Ask the remodeler to share names and
phone numbers of some customers with you and take the time to see
the remodeler's work.
- Ask the home owners, did the
remodeler maintain a reasonably neat jobsite, provide regular
broom clean-up, and haul away debris including personal trash such
as lunch snacks?
- Ask the home owners, did the
remodeler keep labor and materials delays to a minimum so that
your job could be started and completed on time and within budget?
