It is a rare home owner who doesn't embark on a home improvement project at some time. Unfortunately, horror stories abound about cost over-runs, missing permits and projects that don't finish on time or at all.
If you are planning a home improvement project, a little homework will protect your project and your funds. The Contractors State Licensing Board of California offers some excellent guides and pamphlets full of step-by-step instructions and tips. They are well worth reading and could ultimately save you save you thousands of dollars.
