This is to ensure that if an accident happens where a piece of the material breaks or is rendered useless, you will not waste time making trips to the hardware store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep this extra materials in a secure place where they won&#8217;t be damaged.

If you take this route, make sure you do your research, and find an experienced contractor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also ask for a portfolio of previous work and references from prospective hires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Call these past clients, and ask questions such as: <em>&#8220;Was he and his employees professional, on time, and on budget?&#8221; &#8220;Were you happy with your overall experience and would you use this contractor again?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-but-don-t-be-afraid-to-fire-the-contractor\"><strong>&#8230;But Don&#8217;t Be Afraid to Fire the Contractor<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find that the contractor is not holding up to their end of the deal, do not be afraid to fire them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find a different contractor to pick up where they left off, but again you will need to perform your due diligence before hiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find that you have to let the contractor go, then meet with another contractor and explain your situation.
