First time working with a contractor here. Does anyone have an example of what a contract should look like and the details in the scope of work? I'm wondering how much specifics I need to include for each line item.

Hi Yvonne,

Abel’s screenshot is a great example! While every project is unique, the basics he highlighted are essential parts of any construction contract. It’s also important to be as specific as possible in the scope of work for each line item—clear details can save you from misunderstandings or unexpected costs later on.

I specialize in consulting services for situations just like this, helping clients work confidently with contractors by bridging the knowledge gap. You can ask me any questions you might feel unsure about—I’m here to help. As a licensed real estate agent and contractor, I speak the language and can guide you through the process to ensure everything runs smoothly. Feel free to reach out if you’d like some guidance!
