Last week, I started with the first important question you need to ask a potential contractor, if you want to avoid headaches in the future. What is the experience of a potential contractor? Do they finish on time? Have they completed similar projects to the ones you are asking them to do? All of these questions are critical in finding the right contractor.
Also very important, is question 2.
- Do you have a contracting license?
Depending on where you live, there are different requirements for what type of license a contractor has to hold. Check the laws in your region to see what might apply, and ask potential contractors directly whether they hold those licenses.
You want to ensure that the contractor working in your home has experience but also holds the necessary licenses, allowing them to complete your home renovation correctly and promptly. Keep asking until you are satisfied with the answer.
Next week, we will take a look at the third question you need to ask to ensure you are choosing the right contractor.
