They should supply you will a schedule for payment, according to different parts of your remodeling projects completion. Each day you should check with the contractor about their progress for work that is not completed and is completed.

It isn't unusual for a project to exceed what was budgeted and take more time than first expected. This can be due to the contractor not planning correctly, or many times an issue arises that was unforeseen. An example is renovation due to storm damage.  It may take longer than expected because unforeseen problems may be uncovered as repairs are made.  The contractor cannot know how much damage has been caused until the roof and walls are opened up to see how far the damage stretched. If the contractor does not know exactly what they will end up working with, they will not be able to give the exact number for cost or time.

Tolerate the mess. All construction makes a mess. During the time remodeling in your home is going on, be ready for it. Contractors will try keeping the mess contained as much as possible.
