    "After waiting nearly a year for a contractor to start our job we finally gave up and scrambled to find someone else. We needed our family room completely gutted and rebuilt before Thanksgiving. We met with 3 different companies and settled on Modern Habitat after meeting with Kip Schultz and Bob Dillon for quite some time. They were professional, listened to our needs and concerns, made helpful suggestions and came back with a very reasonable estimate. They showed up daily, kept in constant contact with us both verbally and by email, and consulted us for any changes every step of the way. The room was not completely done by Thanksgiving, which we had expected given the tight timeline, but it was fully functional and we did enjoy the space with family on the holiday. Even after we added a few items and modified others they finished the job less than 2 weeks later. We could not be more pleased with the final result. Our family room went from the original 1970 eyesore with holes and water stains in the popcorn ceiling, peeling wallpaper, atrocious stairs and hideous faux beams to a modern, stylish and comfortable lounge space that we are proud to relax in with guests. We will definitely contact Kip for future renovations and would not hesitate to recommend Modern Habitat to anyone looking for honest, hard-working and reliable general contracting services. GREAT job."

    "Working with Zander at AO Architecture and Design has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His blend of creative vision and practical expertise truly sets him apart in the world of architecture. Zander has an uncanny ability to listen and understand his client needs, transforming those ideas into thoughtful, innovative designs that not only meet but exceed expectations. His attention to detail is exceptional. Every line, every angle, and every material choice is carefully considered to ensure that the final product is both functional and aesthetically stunning. What I particularly appreciate about Zander is his commitment to sustainability and how seamlessly he integrates ecofriendly practices into his designs, making the spaces he creates not only beautiful but also environmentally conscious. Zanders collaborative approach makes him a joy to work. His passion for design is evident in everything he does, and it shows. I cant recommend Zander highly enough."

    "Franziska worked with us to design a transformation of our three story 1868 workers housing building with many small dark rooms into a stunning open and bright home for us and a small apartment for us to rent. Her knowledge of natural lighting is superb. We now have morning sunlight pouring from one end of our house to the other from early Fall to late Spring. This really brightens our spirits daily and I never would have thought of it. She was a pleasure to work with. I'm very detail oriented and in some cases, particularly both kitchens, I spent a lot of her time suggesting different options. She never became impatient and the results of our exchanges was always better than what I'd had in mind. She is also particularly good at making small spaces function and feel as if they are much larger. The apartment is only 400 sq ft and yet it gets rave reviews from our tenants. Franziska is also very knowledgeable about retrofit energy conservation. She cut our energy use to less than half of what it was."

    "Iâ ve worked with many contractors over the years and never had such a great experience! This team is prompt, dedicated, kind and respectful partners during each part of the project. I was always given the right information so I could make my best decisions and never had to wonder if the work was going to get done. They were there every day right on time, worked hard throughout the day and were always willing to talk through best options if we found something that needed addressing (which in this place was plenty). The site was always pristine at the end of the day (even when I told them they didnâ t have to!). This was a hard project and I was putting a lot of faith in them and they delivered above and beyond. I have been recommending them to all my friends and family and will continue to do so! Simply put, this team is who you want on your next job."

Frequently asked questions

  • It’s important that you verify their license is still in good standing. Also keep in mind that certain states or provinces don’t require licensing if the job is under a certain dollar amount.
  • You can find a list of your state’s licensing requirements on the HomeAdvisor website. Before you get to work with the pro, make sure their qualifications are current and acceptable to you.
  • It is always a good idea to get a copy of the pro’s insurance certificate for future records, and in case anything happens. This is a good way to feel more secure in your home project, and to weed out potential scammers.

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.

Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Here’s a look at task-specific advice.

You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractor’s qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a pro’s HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website. 

Your research doesn’t stop here. Once you’ve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:

  • Have you completed a job like this before?
  • Do you have a list of references I can contact?
  • When are you able to start the job?

In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down. 

  • How many years of experience do you have?
  • What’s your permanent business address?
  • Are you licensed to work in my area?
  • When did you earn your business license?
  • How do you handle warranty service complaints?
  • Do you have worker’s compensation, property damage and personal liability insurance?

Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.

For remodeling and other large-scale home projects, hiring a general contractor can make the difference between a chaotic and stressful waste of time and a hassle-free experience. They are a "jack of all trades" who make sure a job is completed on-time and within budget. They hire and manage subcontractors, pull permits, buy materials, and handle issues related to liability and warranties.

While it's important to get quotes from at least 3 contractors before hiring anyone and to watch out for warning signs (for example, if they request the entire payment upfront), it can be equally as important to make sure they are nearby. Contractors in your area can negotiate better prices for materials and labor, can source local materials, and typically know your area's code requirements.

When you start to interview candidates, here are some questions you should ask:

  • Are you licensed and do you have general liability and workman's compensation insurance?
  • Do you have client references, industry certifications, and have there been any legal suits against your company?
  • How long have you been in business and do you guarantee your work?
  • What is the structure of the payment agreements?
  • Can you describe and compare my project to others you have completed and what challenges may arise?
