Where to Start

Before you hire a contractor, research thoroughly. Here’s how to start:

• Testimonials: Check Houzz for ratings.


• Word of Mouth: Ask friends, family, or neighbors who have just remodeled.


• Confirm Certifications: Ensure the contractor has insurance and proper credentials.


• Visit Showrooms: View their prior projects to evaluate quality.

Expert Advice: Never forget to request proof of work to ensure their reliability.

How to Vet Contractors

Talking to contractors ahead of signing is a must. Ask these critical questions:

• What credentials do you have?


• Do you specialize in bathrooms?


• Can I see before-and-after pictures?


• What’s your project schedule?


• Do you offer a contingency plan?

Warning Signs

Not all contractors are reliable. Here are some red flags to be cautious of:

• Missing Credentials: A legitimate contractor should always be licensed and insured.


• No Written Estimates: All terms should be in a formal contract before work begins.


• High-Pressure Sales Tactics: A ethical contractor allows time for review.


• No Portfolio: Seeing is believing.
