QUESTIONS TO ASK
Questions to ask: kitchen flooring replacement
Good contractor questions for kitchen flooring replacement test how the work will actually be delivered. Start by asking who will check existing floor layers, subfloor condition, and finished floor height, how findings will be documented, and what happens if the existing conditions differ from assumptions.
Questions about existing conditions
“Will you check existing floor layers, subfloor condition, and finished floor height before finalizing the scope?” Ask what will be measured, photographed, or opened for verification and which assumptions remain provisional.
Questions about the proposed method
“How will you choose materials suited to spills, cleaning, and cabinet or appliance loads?” Request an explanation of the assembly, trade responsibilities, material choices, and what will be inspected before work is covered.
Questions about disruption and inspection
“What is the sequence for plan appliance movement, door clearances, transitions, and underlayment?” Ask about access, temporary shutdowns, material delivery, protection, inspection scheduling, and cleanup.
Questions to ask before signing
“What happens if hidden conditions change the scope?” New flooring thickness can interfere with dishwasher removal or door swing. Confirm who approves changes, how pricing is documented, and what workmanship warranty and exclusions apply.
