Common Contractors/Remodeling questions
How do I stop remodel tire-kickers before a site visit?
The callout names the project, such as a kitchen, bath, or addition, and who it is not for. The call asks timeline and whether they own the home.
What is the right next step after a remodeling inquiry?
A design consult, not a same-day truck roll. The book plays set the length, who should attend, and what to have ready.
How long should I follow a remodeling estimate?
Longer than a service ticket. The close plays use a short sequence over a few weeks, then a clean stop, so you are not chasing a project that was never real.
Should a remodeling ad promise a price?
No. These plays send people to a consult. A fake starting price draws the wrong lead and is hard to defend on the visit.
