Home improvement tips warn of contractor pitfalls
The Better Business Bureau finds homeowners face unsatisfactory remodeling experiences due to unmet promises and poor workmanship. Texas A&M experts advise competitive bids, written contracts, insured contractors, and careful evaluation of guarantees to avoid costly mistakes. Landscaping costs, site planning, and preserving trees are emphasized to integrate house and grounds. Old farm buildings require a master plan, condition checks, and cost comparisons before remodeling or demolition.
