Most home projects don’t go off track because of the work itself — they go off track because the right questions weren’t asked early on.
1. Who Will Be Working on Each Part of the Project?
Different phases often require different expertise. Knowing who handles what helps set clear expectations.
2. How Will the Work Be Sequenced?
Understanding the order of tasks prevents confusion and unrealistic timelines.
3. What Needs to Happen Before Work Begins?
Prep work, measurements, approvals, and material availability can all affect when a project actually starts.
4. How Will Communication Be Handled?
Clear points of contact and regular updates make a big difference in how smooth a project feels.
5. What Areas of the Home Will Be Affected?
Even focused projects can impact nearby rooms, walkways, or daily routines.
6. How Will Completion Be Defined?
Knowing what “done” looks like helps homeowners feel confident when the project wraps up.
Asking the right questions upfront sets the tone for the entire project and helps homeowners feel informed every step of the way.
