Descrição do livro
BEFORE YOU HIRE A CONTRACTOR, KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR.
Hiring a contractor can be one of the biggest financial decisions a homeowner makes. Most contractors are honest professionals who want to do good work, but unfortunately, a few bad contractors can cause serious financial loss, frustration, and damage to the reputation of the entire industry.
Inside, you will learn how to:
- Recognize contractor scams, warning signs, and questionable sales tactics
- Check contractors, understand bids and contracts, and protect your payments
- Understand permits, inspections, change orders, and your responsibilities
- Recognize problems after construction begins and document them properly
- Know what to do when a contractor stops communicating or abandons a project
Written from the perspective of a Building Official with firsthand experience seeing the problems homeowners face.
The book also includes practical end-of-chapter checklists covering common mistakes and red flags, giving you an easy reference when evaluating a contractor and managing your project.
You do not have to be a construction expert to protect your home and your money. You need to know what to check, what questions to ask, and when to stop and take a closer look.
Read this book before you hire your next contractor-not after something goes wrong.
