Important Questions to Ask a Construction Team

Planning a home improvement project but unsure where to begin? Trusting your general contractor is crucial before you start. That’s why we at Team Rehub have curated a list of essential questions to ask any renovation team, including us.

Key Questions to Ask Before Making Your Decision:

Are they licensed and insured?

Ensure the contractor has the necessary licenses and insurance to protect you from liability. We have both, so that's one less thing to worry about with us.

Can you provide references?

Ask for references from past clients to gauge their satisfaction and the quality of work. Our past clients are more than happy to share their positive experiences working with us.

What is your experience with this type of project?

Determine if the contractor has relevant expertise in projects like yours. We handle projects of all sizes and complexities, so we likely have experience similar to what you need.

What is the estimated timeline for completion?

Understand the project duration to align with your expectations and schedule. We provide precise timeframes and strive to stay on schedule.

How do you handle project changes or unexpected issues?

Inquire about their process for managing unforeseen circumstances and potential additional costs. We plan for these scenarios to ensure smooth progress and can assess what needs to be done based on the current state of your property.

What is the payment schedule?

Discuss the payment structure, including down payments, progress payments, and the final payment upon completion. We're always transparent about our payment terms.

Will you obtain the necessary permits?

Confirm if the contractor will handle the permit process, ensuring compliance with local regulations. We take care of this and will advise you when permits are required.

Can you provide a detailed written contract?

Request a comprehensive contract outlining project details, costs, materials, and warranties. We ensure all contracts are thoroughly reviewed, and all questions are answered before work begins.


Choosing the right general contractor is vital for a successful project. By asking these questions upfront, you can make an informed decision and ensure a smooth and satisfactory construction experience.
