FAQ
WHAT CAN YOU HELP ME WITH AS A CONSTRUCTION CONSULTANT?
We specialize in providing expert, unbiased guidance to help you make confident decisions about your home or project. We can:
Review contractor bids and help you compare them
Walk you through inspection reports and point out red flags
Offer advice on materials, design choices, and project timelines
Help you troubleshoot common construction, DIY, or renovation concerns
Give strategic recommendations to avoid costly mistakes
Provide virtual consultations via phone or video
What can’t you help me with? We do not:
Provide step-by-step instructions for DIY electrical, plumbing, or gas work (for safety and licensing reasons)
Create stamped architectural or engineering plans
Pull permits on your behalf
Perform physical work on-site
Replace the need for licensed contractors or tradespeople
Offer legal advice or real estate services
DO YOU ONLY WORK WITH HOMEOWNERS?
We primarily serve homeowners, renters, buyers, and investors, but we also assist small business owners or with light commercial projects.
CAN YOU HELP ME PICK A CONTRACTOR?
Yes! We can review bids, check for missing details, and give you tips on what to ask during interviews so you can choose the right fit.
DO YOU WORK WITH PROJECTS OUTSIDE THE U.S.?
At this time, our services are focused on U.S.-based projects due to differences in building codes and practices.
DO YOU PROVIDE ON-SITE VISITS?
We are a virtual service and do not provide on-site visits. We do however provide video calls to visually see your project needs and scope of work.
DO YOU REPLACE THE NEED FOR A LICENSED CONTRACTOR?
No—we don’t replace licensed contractors. Our role is to help you determine whether you need one, and if so, guide you in choosing the right fit. We complement their work by making sure you fully understand the process, options, and potential pitfalls before you commit to a plan or contract.
WHAT IF I PAY BUT YOU CAN’T HELP ME WITH MY PROJECT?
If your request falls outside of our scope (for example, it requires detailed electrical wiring instructions, licensed work, or is located outside the U.S.), we’ll let you know right away. If we determine before or during the consultation that we cannot provide value for your situation, we will issue a full refund.

or canceled at no charge. Cancellations made with 12 hours will not receive a refund.
