After you’ve narrowed down your search to three or four high-end residential contractors in NYC, ask them the following questions to determine who is the best fit for your project.

Have they worked on comparable projects?

Relevant work experience is essential. No matter how much you love the work of a particular contractor, if he specializes in luxury bathrooms, and you need a professional kitchen renovation for your Manhattan eatery, it’s probably not a match. You wouldn’t visit a dentist if you needed knee surgery, right? Same rules apply when it comes to hiring high-end residential contractors in NYC or Westchester.

Do they provide references?

While it’s important to talk to the contractor’s former clients, don’t forget to ask about financial and professional references as well. Financial references can assure you that the contractor pays on time, minimizing the risk of financial mishaps – like a lien being placed on your home – while professional references can vouch for his character and work ethic. A reputable contractor will gladly hand them over because he has nothing to hide.

Do they have an established and reliable team of subcontractors?

When it comes to high-end contractors in NYC or Westchester, the experience and reliability of the team are everything. It doesn’t matter how good the project manager is at his job if the team doesn’t show up to work.
