Hey! Don't be afraid to ask questions! Especially early on. Clear communication is always the key 🔑

Before you even start, get everything in writing - the contract should spell out materials, timeline, and most importantly, quality standards. Ask for references too - talk to past clients and see their work if you can. And don't be shy about checking in during the project - better to catch any issues early on before they become bigger problems 🤷

Effective communication is crucial for maintaining workmanship standards with your contractor. Clearly define expectations before starting the project to prevent misunderstandings. Conduct regular site visits, encourage feedback, and prioritize transparency to ensure the end result meets your expectations. 😎
