What to confirm before agreeing

Ask for a written scope that identifies preparation, protection, connected trades, disposal, finishing and the agreed completion checks. Confirm the responsible provider’s qualifications, insurance and any local requirements for this work. Ask how concealed conditions and changes are approved before additional charges arise.
