Especially because we are not talking about a regular renovation, when it comes to your home, there are plenty of doubts. Starting with the main one how to choose the right contractor? we bring you 5 TIPS for choosing the right contractor that will make your house look as you’ve always been dreaming.
Whether you are planning to remodel a single room or your entire house, or even wondering about building something completely new, you need to bear in mind the following aspects into account, in order to choose the right contractor that will give you the spaces you really deserve.
1. Evaluate very well the overall price compared to other estimates vs. the value provided by them: we personally do not recommend choosing a contractor merely based on prices, you always need to make a balance between several aspects that are more specified in the following points.
2. Think about the payment schedule: upfront percentage, installments, and percentage after finishing the project. Sometimes is quite easy to agree with the payments, but there is the possibility to be missing anything and for the price to increase if any unexpected situation comes up.
3. Set timelines and be aware of the contractor's response to queries and requests in a timely manner.
4. Something to be interested in (and many of you would probably miss) is insurance and tax clearance. Ask the following questions and make your choice depending on the answers: is the contractor licensed, bonded, and insured.
You can also request this information:
- Insurance
- High level of cover for large, regular work
- Tax Clearance
- Tax Clearance Certificate
- PSCP Health and Safety
- H&S documents and plan
5. When the project finishes, what do they do to keep the rest of your home debris free? Will they provide cleanup? It is important to know what the contractor does once the project finishes. You’d like to evaluate different aspects according to your requirements in order to avoid unexpected surprises when your house is ready.
BONUS: If you are already working with a contractor, ask yourself the following questions when it finishes knowing whether or not to call them again.
- Did the contractor listen to your needs?
- Did the contractor complete the job on time?
- Did it fulfill your expectations about the work done?
