How detailed is your reno contract? Does your ID/ contractor specify the brand of materials used? Tks!

No brands indicated except for paint & kitchen worktop surface (which i specified). Best to ask before signing if you have specific requirements. Else you may get a rude shock when asked to top up once reno had commenced. While you can still ask to get your own supplier for some things, sourcing for one might delay the reno job. Just this week I realised I should have asked for a specific brand of switch cover plates... ding donged a bit with my contractor before deciding to let them purchase it though they might mark up the price a bit,
