Did you know that kitchens are the most popular room to renovate in the home? Getting your kitchen remodeled is exciting. It can change the entire look of your home and add great value to the home, as well. It can be fun choosing all the items for your kitchen, however, choosing a contractor can be a more stressful task.
You want to choose a contractor who is:
- Experienced
- Licensed
- Insured
- Has extensive experience working on kitchens
- Communicated effectively
- Understands your vision and wants and needs
- Who had great reviews and recommendations
- Who stays in budget
You can either find a contractor to redo your kitchen through friends and family, visit the Better Business Bureau’s website, or read online customer reviews. Try to find 3 or 4 contractors and get quotes from them. They will look at your kitchen and come up with an estimate. Don’t hire anyone who won’t give you a quote in writing. You will also want to ask the contractor how long the job will take. Don’t hire anyone with an unrealistic timeframe. Check on the contractor’s references to make sure they are quality professionals who deliver quality work. Make sure your contractor knows kitchens. If he/she doesn’t have experience redoing kitchens, don’t hire him.
After you choose a contractor, you will receive a contract that will map out the scope of the project, the cost, the materials, the timeframe, and other stipulations. Before signing the contract, make sure the contractor is licensed and insured and get a copy of this information.
