How the Hiring Process Usually Works

How the Hiring Process Usually Works

I am an independent restoration carpenter.  It is just me, a one person operation.  Being small has advantages and disadvantages.  The disadvantages are the limits in project size and client timelines on larger projects.  The advantages are individualized and focused attention on your needs, along with excellent one on one communication, and my personal guarantee of fine workmanship.  I have over 28 years of experience in the building trades, but I am not done learning and growing as a craftsperson.

Hiring a contractor to complete work on your home for the first time can be a challenging process, but doesn’t have to be.  Here are the steps we make together to take your project from an idea to a finished product:

  1. Contact me and share your project ideas and explain the problems you want to solve, we will set a time and day for a visit.
  2. Home Visit / Consultation.  I will arrive in person to get a clear idea of what you want to accomplish and take measurements for a work proposal.
  3. Proposal:  I will submit a detailed proposal to you.  The proposal will include a description of the work, specify the materials to be used and the cost of the project.
  4. Project Approval:  After reviewing the proposal, you have the opportunity to make changes, approve the project, or decide to wait, or use another contractor.  There is no cost until you decide to approve the proposal by signing the proposal and submitting a deposit.  Deposits range from 10% to 25% depending on the cost of special order materials.  The proposal will set a clear start and finish date.
  5. Ongoing Communication:  I will keep in touch with you to let you know the exact start time and day.
  6. The Work
  7. Work Completion, Final Walkthrough and Final Payment:  We will examine the work together to be sure you are completely satisfied.
  8. Follow Up:  I will follow up with you to be sure the job remains to your satisfaction.  You can also reach out to me for any assistance or for any guarantee issues.  Please remember that my work is my name, and I want to make sure you are satisfied.  Don’t be afraid to call.  

Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

I require a deposit along with a signed proposal to begin ordering materials and schedule the project.  Deposits range from 10% to 25% depending on the price of materials and special orders.  

All of my proposals for work include a fully detailed scope of the work to be completed. You will receive a written report with a breakdown of the cost and time estimated for your project.

We communicate with you every step of the way.   A proposal for work will identify a time range for start and completion of the project.  Once you have signed a proposal and submitted a deposit for materials, I will schedule your project.  Please note that material orders may take 6 to 10 weeks and occasionally longer.  Materials are ordered after you approve the proposal.  I will contact you about a week prior to set an actual start date and deliver materials.  If for some reason, the job will take longer, usually due to material delays, I will communicate with you immediately.
