Hiring a remodeler in Southwest Florida: 8 questions worth asking

Most remodeling problems are scheduling and communication problems long before they are craftsmanship problems. These questions surface both.

Who is my single point of contact?

If the answer involves more than one name, expect to become the project manager yourself.

Is the crew employed or subcontracted?

Neither answer is disqualifying, but it changes how scheduling conflicts get resolved and who is accountable for a callback.

What does the written proposal actually cover?

A real proposal names materials, hardware, and finish levels. A number on a single line is a placeholder, not a price.

What happens when something is found behind the wall?

Every older home has a surprise. Ask how change orders are priced before you need one.
