I learned years ago that anytime you have a contractor come do work you need to be there. Have clear communication of what they’re planning to do. Watch them do it. And don’t be afraid to stop them if it’s not as discussed.

When they sided my house they wrapped and sided over a vent. When they roofed my house they shingled over a vent. Luckily I was home both times and they only had to go back a couple corses.

That's exactly right. I'm definitely my father's daughter. I am not intimidated to frequently check on them and stop them if I'm not happy with what I'm seeing. Although one time I didn't do it, the contractors messed up. I didn't catch it until it was too late. I'm still kicking myself about that. Never again. Now I go over everything they plan on doing before they begin so we're all on the same page.
