I usually ask honest contractors have known for years, travel to NH and pay for their travel fee.
Believe me, it is worth it for a piece of mind.

If you talked to a contractor, about ANY kind of work, all of the options should come out in conversation. A customer not being made aware of the extra costs (say inside trim paint) isn't talking to a competent, business minded person.

Face it- the contractor offers options for which he/she can make more money, and the possibility of negative, mouth-to=mouth advertising becomes non-existent.

If you've been in business for any reasonable amount of time, you know the onus is on you to be thorough, not the one paying you!

What- you want the customer telling you he knows more about your business than you do?
