Frequently Asked Questions

Getting started begins with two of the most important parts of the home remodeling process: communication and collaboration. 

First, we encourage you to reach out to us here or by phone. 

You can expect a prompt reply from us as we immediately begin to gather and share as much information as possible regarding your project. 

This initial contact will tell you more about our process and help us learn more about your needs. 

The next step will be an in-home consultation. 

This allows us to meet in person and discuss your project in more detail.

There is no fee for our initial consultation.

Scale is important when it comes to the home remodeling process. Having a team that executes projects of similar scope on a regular basis maximizes efficiency. 

We have two divisions that address projects relative to their scope and most projects fall within one of them. 

This expanded approach allows us to serve more clients.

We are committed to ensuring the best possible outcome for your project and our team of design professionals is available to help you through the product selection process. 

Once the layout of your project has been finalized, our designers will work closely with you to navigate this process until every item for your project has been selected. 

This includes cabinetry, tile, countertops, hardware, flooring, light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, and anything else that relates to the project scope.

Nifty Contractor always complies with all safety and building obligations, including permits and historical requirements. 

You do not have to worry about getting the permits, we take care of that for you as well.

All of our services are backed by a satisfaction guarantee. 

We also offer a 100% customer service satisfaction guarantee for all our clients.

Yes, we do! We use multiple software packages (AutoCAD, Chief Architect, and 20/20) for 2D and 3D cabinetry design and ordering of materials. 

Our Design Team will go through each cabinet and drawer, helping to select inserts and dividers for organization and maximum utilization of the cabinetry.

We would recommend that you hire professionals to move your furniture, but if there is something small that you need us to take care of, we would certainly do so.

Our priority is your safety and the protection of your home and belongings. 

Before we do anything else, we install protective coverings guaranteeing multiple levels of protection to the areas of your home impacted by your project. 

We also use HIPPA filtration systems to keep your home as clean as possible. 

We manage this protection for the duration of the job keeping your home damage and dust free.

Depending on the scope of the project, sometimes moving out of the home temporarily is the best option. 

However, at other times staying is not a problem at all. 

We can set up a temporary kitchen or make accommodations where we can help keep your daily life moving along at its normal pace.

With the right planning, your home renovation dreams can be achieved any time of year. 

Though some projects may have specific seasonal requirements to take full advantage of; for example, a new addition requires foundation and footing work best done when temperatures are relatively mild. 

Our experienced team at Nifty Contractor is here to answer all questions about timing and ensure everything runs smoothly – so you can enjoy your improved space as soon as possible.

Home remodeling projects vary in size and scope which of course determines the timeline. 

At Nifty Contractor we take scheduling seriously. 

We will present a detailed schedule for your project before a contract is signed and utilize project management software to maintain that schedule. 

This software is very interactive, and you will have access to your project’s activity from start to finish.

While we do our best to set reasonable expectations and help you plan for contingencies, delays can still happen, and we are committed to communicating these things with you and working quickly to resolve them before they potentially impact your project timeline.
