Hi!
(More) advice needed!
The house I'm moving to needs A LOT of work doing to it and so I'll need to use contractors and trades to do big jobs such as work on the roof / new windows / electrics etc.
We've never used any trades as the husband is super handy but there is a limit to what he can do and we need to call in the professionals!
What should I look for when employing a trade? Should I be expected to pay upfront? What are some things to avoid?
Thank you
