Six Secrets To The Perfect Custom Remodel Of Your Home

Secret #1: The Biggest Mistakes Consumers Make and How To Avoid Them

Far and away the number one mistake most consumers make, costing them a fortune, is that they will ask for references, but never use them. Call all the references! You can never learn too much about the person you are considering accepting.

Take the few minutes to talk to these people. It will be well worth it! Ask if the job was done on time and at the agreed upon price. Ask if the contractor was easy to reach and deal with.

The second biggest mistake people make is that they don't go and investigate the projects the contractor is currently working on. You can learn a lot simply by going out and taking a look. Are the work sites clean and neat? Are tools and materials strewn about like a hurricane just blew through? Is everything dusty and dirty or is it covered, tarped, and sealed off. Chances are if he keeps his work sites clean and neat, especially at the end of the day when it's time to go home, you've got a conscientious contractor.
