Questions to Ask Before Hiring a GTA Renovation Contractor

The right questions help you compare scope, communication, site planning, millwork, and quote assumptions before work starts.

Ask how the scope is confirmed

Before comparing numbers, ask what the quote includes, what is excluded, and which details still need a decision.

  • Included work
  • Excluded work
  • Allowances
  • Open decisions

Ask about site unknowns

Renovations can reveal conditions that were not visible at the first conversation. A clear process should explain how those items are handled.

  • Existing conditions
  • Access
  • Material lead times
  • Change communication

Ask for proof

A portfolio or case study helps you see the kind of work a company is comfortable showing publicly.
