Questions to ask before you sign

  • What is included in the allowances, and what happens if I go over?
  • Who is on site daily, and are subs or employees doing the work?
  • How are change orders priced and approved?
  • What is the payment schedule tied to — dates or milestones?
Checking a Tennessee license: licensed contractors carry a number you can verify with the Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors. Ask for a certificate of insurance sent directly from the insurer, never a photocopy. Walk away from anyone asking for a large cash deposit up front or pressuring you to skip a permit.
