Establish Communication
Discuss with your contractor how you prefer to communicate. Establish a regular meeting time, perhaps at the site for a few minutes before work each day. Exchange cell phone numbers so urgent questions—from either party—can get answers quickly and keep work moving.
Your contractor may ask you to speak with the project manager who is running the job. Whatever the arrangement, chat at least once a day.
These discussions are your opportunity to hear progress reports, review work schedules, ask questions, and voice concerns. Daily chitchats help identify and remedy problems in their infancy. And even though no one likes change orders, it’s better to spend a little more to fix a problem then to live with it for the next 10 years.
