Five steps to work with a contractor

Here are five steps to developing a great relationship with a remodeling contractor.new construction

1. Let the contractor know if you are ready to remodel or just kicking the tires. Gary Palmer, a Charlotte, N.C.-based general contractor, says seeking multiple bids is fine, but don’t waste his or her time by letting the bidding process drag on for weeks.

2. Do your homework. Before seeking bids, develop two files. One should include information, including photos, of what you like. The other should include a list of what you don’t like. 3. Listen to the experts. A good contractor can tell you whether the project is feasible and what the pay off will be. 4. Communicate your budget. Let the contractor know up front how much money you intend to spend. 5. Be realistic and patient. Every remodeling project is messy and all of them are going to be frustrating somewhere along the way. Source: Charlotte Observer, Barbara S. Russell (10/23/2010) Construction
