Welcome to another Q&A session where I answer questions from y'all on the internet.
Today's question is:
A solid contractor will walk you through the problem, explain the options, give you realistic timelines, and keep the communication clear. If you’re working with someone who specializes in the type of project you’re doing — new builds, insurance restorations, major remodels, whatever — they’ve usually seen the worst of it and know the exact steps to get things back on track. Problems don’t have to derail a remodel; they just have to be handled by someone who actually knows what they’re doing and stands behind their work.
Issues can happen during a remodel, but the right contractor will address them quickly, communicate clearly, and use proper licensing, insurance, and experience to fix the problem without derailing the project.
