Besides what others have already said...get a penalty in the contract. They have to be finished on a fixed day or pay a penalty for each day past that.

I thought you might ask your previous contractor to sling a few basins etc in.
No only joking, try and get someone with a\ good reference. These words of wisdom
will save you pain. Of course, you already know by now. Petal pink is very nice.

Good Morning
Kabu, I think anytime you are doing renovations at home it can be quite stressful. When I had the ceiling put in the back room it took almost a month before the company could start the job. Things used to be so different. Now there is so much time waiting for the contractor and they all say we don't have enough workers and supplies are low. I'm already thinking about getting the estimates on my kitchen floor. Who knows how long that could take. I have to say my gnomes have been very good up to this point. They've been working hard and going to sleep early. Sgt Mulberry said they are going to start classes as soon as Spring clean-up is over. They love their field trips to the Metroparks. There have been no parties here that I know of but I do know my fairies are planning a big tea party for later in the month. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Do your gnomes have a little outhouse with a moon carving for their outside living?

Good afternoon
Party animals those little brats are. As for your bathroom project, I am jealous. I have been wanting a larger bathroom and a new shower/bath installed for years. With prices being so high, like you, we do one project at a time, and right now we have been focused on the outdoors. You'll have to show photos of your new space once it is finished. Have a great day.

Did you know there are biker gnomes? They show up on their
Harley Davidson mororcycles and bring the party with them. And yesterday I saw an ad for a Bigfoot yard decoration, the big furry creature carrying a gnome under each arm... Cute. Hope your bathroom project brings you just the luxury touch you and Jim need, without the dust and inconvenience of the last reno.
