Ask what waterproofing system is included
Compare shower pan, membrane, seams, penetrations, niches, curbs, substrate preparation, and testing where applicable.
Separate fixture price from installation scope
A fixture allowance does not necessarily cover valves, rough-in changes, glass, installation labor, accessories, freight, or markup.
Ventilation and electrical should not be assumed
Clarify fans, ducts, GFCI protection, lighting, heated floors, new circuits, switches, and permit responsibility.
Use the decision as the starting baseline
When you choose a contractor, preserve the accepted scope, price, allowances, and payment milestones. CheckMyBids is the pre-hire side of the workflow; CheckMyRemodel is where the awarded project continues when changes and payments start.
