Contractors: Remodelers & General Articles
Thinking About a Home Remodel? Here’s Where to Start
Begin by carefully considering what you think you want and how you can get it. Weigh your wish list against what you’ll probably pay to fulfill it.
Planning a Home Remodel
If you’re adding new rooms, making substantial changes to the existing floor plan, or dealing with complex structural or functional questions, you’ll need to hire professional design help. There are several design options and combinations of options.
How to Check Out Contractors
Some homeowners leave contractor vetting and selection to their architects or house designers, but most make the call themselves, and rightly so: It’s the most important step.
Getting Prices and Proposals for Remodeling Work
Checkbook’s undercover shoppers asked contractors to bid on three different projects. Company-to-company price differences were striking. For the largest of the jobs, quotes ranged from $190,000 to $321,000—a difference of more than $130,000.
What a Contract for Remodeling Work Should Include
Once you’ve picked a contractor, have it prepare a written contract. It should include the following information for medium-sized and major projects; but even if your project is small, many of these points also apply.
Your Role During a Remodel
You can do a lot to help the job run smoothly, finish on time, and produce the best possible results.
Should You Buy Products Yourself for a Remodel?
You can use our advice and price ratings to pay less—often a lot less—for appliances, fixtures, flooring, plantings, and many other products that you can buy on your own, rather than having your contractor buy them for you. But should you?
Financing Options for Remodeling Work
You have several options to pay for your project. Cash certainly is the easiest: no applications, no forms, no appraisals, no debt, no interest. However, many homeowners borrow to cover large remodeling jobs.

Consumer Comments for CDT Remodeling
May 22, 2026
One of the reasons I wanted to work with CDT on my renovation was that they would help me make design selections for cabinets, tile, countertops, backsplash, and even things like the bathtub, sinks, and shower head. They worked with me on the design style I was looking for and helped me make it happen. I can’t say enough about how happy I am with the results of their guidance.
Project Manager Dan McHale was amazing to work with. He kept me updated by group text with progress reports, as well as on the work planned for the coming week. We worked through any changes or unexpected things calmly and respectfully. He is unfailingly upbeat. They think outside the box to solve any problems.
I always felt they were listening and ready to do whatever was needed. You can tell everyone wants to make you happy. I also want to mention their attention to detail, which is exceptional.
They finished the job on schedule, which was very important to me because I had to move out while the work was done. I couldn’t be happier with my new kitchen, bathroom, and freshly painted first and second floors.
