Everything Homeowners Ask Before Starting a Renovation
How does GateHouse protect me from bad contractors?
GateHouse works only with vetted contractors who meet licensing, insurance, and quality standards. We also oversee the renovation process and structure payments through milestones, ensuring work meets expectations before funds are released.
Do I have to meet multiple contractors myself?
No. GateHouse handles the contractor search and vetting for you. We collect multiple bids, compare them side by side, and present you with clear options — so you never have to chase down contractors or sit through awkward sales pitches.
How are contractors vetted?
Every contractor in our network is checked for valid licensing, insurance, past project quality, and homeowner reviews. We only work with professionals who consistently meet our standards for reliability and craftsmanship.
What if I don't know what questions to ask contractors?
That's exactly why GateHouse exists. Our team guides you through the entire process, asking the right questions on your behalf and making sure nothing falls through the cracks — even if this is your first renovation.
What if something goes wrong during the renovation?
Your dedicated project manager acts as your advocate. If issues arise, we step in to resolve them directly with the contractor. Plus, milestone payments mean the contractor is only paid for work that meets your approval.
How do milestone payments protect me?
Your renovation budget is divided into milestones tied to specific project phases. Funds are only released when each milestone is completed and approved, so you never pay for unfinished work.
How do I know the renovation will stay on budget?
We lock in pricing upfront with detailed scopes of work. If anything changes, you'll be informed and must approve it before additional costs are incurred. No surprise invoices, no hidden fees.
Will I know what's happening during the renovation?
Absolutely. Your project manager provides regular updates with photos and progress reports. You'll always know exactly where things stand without having to chase anyone down.
How do I know I'm getting a fair price?
GateHouse collects multiple competitive bids for your project and presents them transparently. You can compare pricing, timelines, and scope side by side — so you always make an informed decision.
What if I've never done a renovation before?
Most of our homeowners are first-timers. GateHouse was built specifically to take the guesswork out of renovations — from finding the right contractor to managing the entire project on your behalf.
