Unless you are a designer that works in furnishings only, you are going to have to work with a contractor at some point. I don't just mean general contractors either—plumbers, electricians, painters, drywallers, roofers, flooring specialists, wallpaper, hangers, appliance installers, cabinet makers and the list goes on.

Contractors are an integral part of design, remodeling, renovation, and new construction. Unfortunately, there are great and not-so-great contractors out there and you are going to have to work with both kinds. It's important that you know where to find quality contractors and that you know how to work with them effectively.

In today's episode, I'm diving in with my best advice for finding quality contractors you can trust, and the right way to vet them. I'll go over the five must-haves to validate quality contractors every time, and why you want to craft a contract or code of conduct so that you can accurately and precisely set expectations.

In this episode, you will hear:

• How to avoid the frustrations that working with contractors can sometimes bring
• The importance of using a thorough process when vetting potential contractors
• How and why you should craft a code of conduct or contract
• Strategies to help you work effectively and foster successful working relationships
