3 Things to Ask Before Hiring a Builder
Choosing a builder isn’t like picking a restaurant for date night. This is your home (or future home), and who you hire will shape not just the end result but your stress level during the entire process.
If you’re in Middle Tennessee—especially Williamson County—and thinking about building or renovating, here are three questions to ask every builder you interview.
(And yes, these are exactly the questions we’d ask if we were in your shoes.)
1. How do you communicate during the build?
This one’s big. Weekly emails? Daily texts? Smoke signals? You need to know what to expect—and what’s expected of you.
A good builder will have a clear system so you’re never left wondering what’s happening behind the scenes.
2. What happens when something doesn’t go as planned?
Because let’s be honest, something always goes a little off script. A trustworthy builder will answer this directly, not dodge it.
You want someone who owns problems and offers solutions—not someone who ghosts you when the unexpected pops up.
3. Will I get a clear timeline and budget up front?
Surprises are great for birthdays, not budgets. You deserve a builder who gives you clarity and transparency before any ground is broken.
If the plan is vague, the experience probably will be too.
Bottom line? Your builder should make you feel heard, respected, and confident.
If you’re in Williamson County and want to build a home that fits your personality (without losing your mind), let’s talk.
