Thanks for sharing this in-depth guide — it’s very helpful for anyone navigating renovation companies. When I went through a bathroom remodel in Arvada, CO, these three practices made a huge difference:  
1. Compare 3–4 detailed quotes with the same scope so you can truly see differences.  
2. Check contractors’ portfolios for projects with the same size and style as yours.  
3. Confirm licensing, insurance and timelines in writing — many issues stem from ambiguous contracts.  

Your article underscores so many key points. Wishing everyone a smooth and successful renovation!
