Questions To Ask When Working With a San Diego Contractor

Our team here at Sunburst is many things: San Diego shutter installers, home fashion professionals, and more. But basically, you can just call us San Diego contractors.

There are a lot of contractors in San Diego, and it can be difficult to pick the best one for you. Whether you’re planning a kitchen renovation, new floors, or new window treatments – picking the right team is vital. Below are a few questions to ask the next time you hire a San Diego contractor for your upcoming project.

Check Their Credentials

No matter the scale of your project, you should be able to trust your contractor 100%. Build that trust by checking out their credentials. Ask for proof of any certifications and certificate of insurance – any home service professional worth the money will be happy to do so.

Also be sure to look at some reviews. Find out what past customers have said about the contractor from more than one of these sources:

• HomeAdvisor

• Angie’s List

• Houzz

• Facebook

• Google Business

• Better Business Bureau

• Yelp

Be careful not to make the mistake of implicitly trusting online reviews. Reviews are just one thing to consider when looking at your options.

Ask Questions Specific To Your Home

No contractor knows your home better than you, so don’t hesitate to voice any concerns you have about your project with any potential contractor. Are you worried about how the new wood floor you want might not work with your subfloor, or wondering if your new wood shutters are a better choice than wood blinds?

Remember to speak up and ask the questions that are pertinent to your home!

Ask About Installation Day

Depending on the scale of your project, install can be grueling and long, or it could be a snap. For any size project, you should get the details for installation day. Here are a few to get you started.

• Roughly how long will the whole install take?

• How many workers will be coming into my house?

• Do I need to cover any furniture or anything else in the house?

• How likely is there to be any fumes or dust during or after the installation?

• How noisy will the installation be?

• Will my kids or pets need to be out of the house during the installation?
