Previous Work

Ask them about their previous works, a good renovator will offer testimonials and references from previous customers. Can they show you their previous work?

Experience

How long have they been in the industry for? This is not always a strong method of making a decision, however, its important to know if they are competent renovators and familar with experiences and situations while renovating.

Do they have the correct licenses and qualifications? You should look for Licensed Builders in NSW Having the correct licenses and accreditation will assist in consumer protection.

Professionalism

Is the renovator on time? Do they dress and act appropriately in your home? Will their workers act appropriately and respect your home?

We often hear of horror stories surround tradespeople who won’t turn up on time, delay work for non job related reasons, or even worse, tradespeople acting unprofessional in a customers home, the list goes on.

You will get the vibe early while discussing the project with the bathroom renovator, that they appear unprofessional, if this happens, look for another contractor.

Don’t forget to ask them about cleaning up and the state of the bathroom after each day and job completion. Professional Bathroom Renovators will make sure the job site is cleaned appropriately.

Honesty

Ask your Bathroom Renovator for a quote and discuss with them to ensure that it is at your price point. You need to have a Bathroom Renovator who will discuss realistic pricing options and explanations on the cost. Transparency is important for your budget and for you to know that the renovator is honest and not their to over sell or under sell you.

Be wary of contractors that offer very cheap bathroom solutions, its most likely because the fixtures and materials are poor quality or the tradespeople involved are of poor quality.

Can they offer detailed quoting? Avoid those hidden surprises that unscrupulous contractors may throw throughout the job.

Service

What are the systematic steps that your Bathroom Renovator will take? This is important as it not only shows their competence as an experienced builder and installer, it will allow you to get an idea of timelines and what to expect. Imagine having your bathroom demolished without notice or consent.

Does your renovator offer warranty and additional service after the renovation is complete? The contractor unfortunately cannot ensure that your bathroom will last forever in the amazing state after the job completion, however, they can offer a time period warranty which can be a great addition to work completed.

A great bathroom Renovator will take pride in their workmanship and service, if they don’t offer great communication or invite you to contact them at anytime after the job, it’s a sign that your bathroom renovations might end in disaster.
