Make sure your contractor is good at spelling in English.

In the world of remodeling, accuracy matters, even in spelling!

Choosing a contractor who excels not only in construction, but also in clear communication, is the key to a smooth and successful project. Because when every detail is explained correctly, it not only builds spaces, it builds trust. Choose a contractor who crafts perfection, word for word. 

Did you find this interesting, I want to know what you think?

Don't expect it to happen to you like it did to me and not get passed over for a misspelled word.

While clear communication is important, I wouldn't summarily discount contractors whose first language isn't English. 

I've had many many excellent contractors where English was their second language.   There's a difference between carelessness and secondary language barriers.
