How to Find a Reliable Kitchen Contractor
I’ve been a kitchen designer in the Southern California, Los Angeles area for years. Here’s some advice I have given my clients before I go to visit their homes.
Ok, you’ve figured out what you want to renovate your kitchen and decided to hire a kitchen renovation company. Talk to your neighbors, search for companies online, go to home improvement trade shows.
Once you have a list of 3-5 construction company, check out the following:
- Better Business Bureau (Rates Businesses from an A+ to F)
- Angie’s List (Personal reviews by homeowners in your area)
- Contractor’s State License Board
- NKBA (National Kitchen and Bath Association)
- Make sure company is licensed, bonded and insured
- Check out their website for testimonials, photos, etc.
Avoid a world of headaches later! Protect yourself against shady contractors with questionable business practices.
Here’s a few things you can do in preparation:
- The more the designer can see in your kitchen, the less chance for redesign or mistakes during installation. So clear out what you can or expect possible changes in design and/or pricing once production starts.
- Have an idea what you want the end result to be. (Don’t be afraid to be specific!!)
- Add 10% cushion to your kitchen just in case. Your designer should be able to help you design within your budget.
- Best to make sure all homeowners have a clear idea of what is needed!
- For best results, all decision makers should be present during the appointment so all questions can be answered at once.
Once you’ve researched your contractor choices and prepares for your design session, call and set up your appointment for a FREE DESIGN ESTIMATE.
