How to choose a renovation professional
Check before hiring
- Request an itemized offerte that separates labor, materials, demolition, and VAT — not just a lump sum
- Agree in writing on how meer- en minderwerk (extras and scope changes) will be priced and approved during the project
- Ask for a phased timeline showing which trades come when, with realistic buffer between stages
- Confirm the contractor carries liability insurance (aansprakelijkheidsverzekering) and check what it covers
- Ask for 2-3 references from comparable renovation projects and follow up with at least one
- Clarify in the contract who is responsible for permits, skip container placement, and coordination with VvE or landlord
Warning signs
- Offers only a round-number lump sum with no breakdown of labor, materials, or assumptions
- Cannot explain what is excluded from the quote or how change orders will be handled
- Gives a vague timeline like "a few weeks" with no trade sequencing or milestone dates
- Quotes significantly below other contractors without explaining what corners are being cut (materials, prep, insurance)
- Pushes for a large upfront deposit (more than 20-30%) before any materials are ordered or work has started
