3 Signs You’re Working with a Subpar Bathroom Remodeler and What to Do

As a homeowner, a bathroom remodel is a significant investment, and you want to ensure that the work is done correctly. Unfortunately, not all bathroom remodelers are created equal. Some contractors may provide subpar services, which can lead to substandard results. Here are three signs that you may be working with a subpar bathroom remodeler and what to do about it.

1. Poor Communication

Communication is key when it comes to any home improvement project, and a bathroom remodel is no exception. A reputable bathroom remodeler will keep you informed throughout the entire process, including the progress of the project, any issues that arise, and the timeline for completion.

If you notice any of the following communication issues with your remodeler, it may be time to find a new contractor:

  • They are difficult to reach and take a long time to respond to your calls or emails.
  • They are vague or unclear about the details of your project.
  • They don’t listen to your concerns or address them appropriately.

What to Do

If you’re experiencing communication problems with your bathroom remodeler, don’t be afraid to speak up. Let them know your concerns and ask for clear communication going forward. If the issue persists, it may be time to consider finding a new contractor.

2. No Written Contract

A written contract is essential for any home improvement project, including a bathroom remodel. It outlines the details of the project, including the timeline, materials, and cost. Without a written contract, you leave yourself vulnerable to disputes and miscommunications.

If your bathroom remodeler doesn’t provide a written contract, it may be a red flag that they are not a reputable contractor.

What to Do

Insist on a written contract before any work begins. If your bathroom remodeler is hesitant to provide one, it may be time to find a new contractor. At Alabama Baths, we provide our clients with a detailed contract that outlines every aspect of the project, so you know exactly what to expect.

3. Inadequate References or Portfolio

Before hiring a bathroom remodeler, you should always ask for references and a portfolio of their previous work. Reputable contractors will be happy to provide you with this information.

If your bathroom remodeler doesn’t have any references or a portfolio of their work, it may be a sign that they are not experienced or trustworthy.

What to Do

Ask your bathroom remodeler for references and a portfolio of their previous work. If they can’t provide either, it may be time to look for a different contractor. At Alabama Baths, we have a 5-star rating and a portfolio of our previous work on our website. We are also happy to provide references upon request.

Our experience them was fantastic. They went above and beyond, patiently talking us through buying the accessories and generously sorting out our screwups. They worked closely with us at every turn, from decisions about design to decisions about implementation. We have gotten many compliments on our bathroom, including from those who didn't see the horrible "before" situation. We have nothing but praise for them. They are incredible!
