ContractorsFromHell.com Releases The Fourth In A Series of Articles Designed To Educate Homeowners On the Risks and Realities Of Renovating A Home
ContractorsFromHell.com has been helping consumers avoid a home remodeling nightmare with tips on how to choose a contractor wisely and pitfalls to avoid. This latest article uncovers some misnomers homeowners have about
hiring in today's economy.
SAN DIEGO, CA, May 22, 2011 /Building and Construction PR News/ -- Jody Costello, founder of ContractorsFromHell.com has published the fourth in a series of articles designed to help homeowners avoid a home remodeling disaster. The article entitled EURWarning: DonEUR t Even Think About Remodeling Your Home Until You Understand The RisksEUR gives an overview of the most common mistakes and misnomers made by homeowners before they begin to search for a contractor.
The series of articles are based on the core principals of her Home [Pre]modeling Bootcamp For Women (and The Men Who Love Them!) that focuses on little known but necessary information about hiring and working with contractors that leads to a more positive remodeling experience while avoiding remodeling disasters.
EURWith home renovations predicted to slowly increase over the next 5 years, the importance of being informed and educated before hiring a contractor and architect is more crucial than everEUR relates Costello. EURWith construction hardest hit in the current economy there is a false belief amongst consumers that contractors who are hungry for work will slash profits to get their business. And therein lies the danger.EUR
As a Pre-Renovation Expert, Jody teaches homeowners how to spot unscrupulous business practices and shady contractors as they begin researching the best candidates for the job. She stresses the importance of understanding what a Scope of Work document should contain and how a detailed Specifications Sheet is paramount to guiding the project on the right track. Without it, the potential for confusion, misunderstandings and cost overruns can quickly become a reality, no matter how big or small the project.
EURHaving been through a remodeling nightmare 10 years ago, I understand perfectly well what theyEUR re up against and what missing pieces got them into their situations. I had the benefit of learning from construction consultants, expert witnesses and attorneys who guided me through that disaster and helped me to come through it successfullyEUR, states Costello.EUR EURIt was a costly but revealing lesson that I knew I had to share with others. I am committed to helping others avoid these kinds of remodeling disasters because consumers have a right to protect themselves and need to take responsibility in doing so. Otherwise, the risk of getting involved with an unethical contractor goes way up.EUR
The articleEUR s main focus debunks the myth that there are deals to be had when hiring contractors in todayEUR s economy and what pitfalls lie ahead should homeowners blindly sign remodeling contracts that lack detail.
