What Questions Should I Ask Potential Contractors?

According to the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI), timing and money are the most common questions that home improvement contractors hear. These simply aren't enough. If you are going to have a successful remodeling project, you need to learn the right questions to ask and how to ask them.

NARI remodeling contractors state the questions homeowners asked most frequently were:

• When can you start?
• When will you be finished?
• What time will you knock on my door each morning?
• What time will you quit for the day?
• Are you going to work everyday?
• Can you finish before (insert any major holiday or significant family event)?
• How much will it cost per square foot?

Here are some questions we recommend you ask before signing a remodeling contract:

• How long have you been in business?
• Who will be assigned as project supervisor for the job?
• Who will be working on the project? Are they employees or subcontractors?
• Does your company carry workers compensation and liability insurance?
• Are you a licensed contractor?
• What is your approach to a project such as this?
• How many projects like mine have you completed?
• May I have a list of reference from those projects?
• May I have a list of business referrals or suppliers?
• What percentage of your business is repeat or referral business?

It is also important to realize that sometimes it is not the answers you get that are significant, but what you don't get. Asking the right questions is not enough. You need to pay attention to your instincts and to what information is missing. Unlike your accountant or stockbroker, your remodeler will be a part of your daily life and available for some on-the-job education. It makes sense that you should take some time to carefully select this person and make sure that it is someone to whom you can ask questions. Remodeling can be a fun experience. You get to create your dream room or home and learn a little about design and building along the way. All you need to do is ask the right questions. So tap into your curiosity and ask away.
