Q: How do I choose a contractor for my home remodel project?

A: Choosing the right contractor for your home remodel is essential for ensuring a successful and hassle-free project. Here are some key questions to ask potential contractors to help you make an informed decision:


  1. Are you licensed and insured?

    Licensing ensures the contractor meets local regulations and standards, while insurance protects you from liability in case of accidents or damages during the project.

  2. What is your license number?

    Having the license number allows you to verify the contractor’s credentials and history. You can verify the license and history at Washington State's L&I Verify Tool.

  3. What is your experience with similar projects?

    Experience with projects similar to yours ensures the contractor understands the specific challenges and requirements, leading to better results.

  4. Where can I find examples of the work you’ve done?

    Seeing examples of past work helps you assess the quality and style of the contractor’s work. Ask for a portfolio or visit completed projects if possible.

  5. Who will be the primary point of contact during the project?

    Knowing who will manage your project ensures you have a reliable and experienced point of contact for any questions or concerns.

  6. What is the experience of your crew?

    A skilled and experienced crew is crucial for the quality and efficiency of the work. Ask about the qualifications and experience of the team members who will be working on your project.

  7. Do you obtain the necessary permits for your projects?

    Ensuring the contractor handles permits and inspections guarantees that your project complies with local building codes and regulations.

  8. What is the warranty on your work?

    A warranty provides peace of mind that the contractor stands by their work and will address any issues that arise after the project is completed.

  9. How do you handle cleanup and disposal of construction debris?

    Proper cleanup and disposal are important for maintaining a safe and tidy work environment. Ensure the contractor has a plan for handling debris and will leave your home clean.


By asking these questions, you can gather the necessary information to choose a professional, experienced, and reliable contractor for your home remodel. Taking the time to vet potential contractors thoroughly will help ensure that your project is completed successfully and to your satisfaction.
