-- Include important details in the contract, such as how much wall preparation is included, how many coats will be applied, what brand of paint will be used, how much
extra wall repairs and coats of paint will cost and when the job will be done.
We chose to put the hole in the
wall (vs. the door) because we didn't want to damage the (
extra tall, solid wood, special order) door (if necessary,
repairing that little square of drywall would be less expensive) and I liked the idea of the hole blending in with the plate collection (vs. really standing out in the center of the door).
