As a residential contractor, chances are you've seen it all: litigation threats, withheld payments, and indecisive clients who change plans midproject or, worse, abandon a project altogether.

Are you prepared for the unexpected? How do you protect your time, subcontractors, and reputation when even one unhappy customer could derail your progress?

In Trust Your Gut,

Karalynn Cromeens shares why a residential construction contract is more than a legal document: it's a safety net. She shows you how to create a contract with clear expectations, breaking down the essentials and guiding you to draft contracts that work for you and your business. Learn how to handle disputes like the pro you are, include the right warranties, define the scope of work, and trust your gut when picking clients.

A must-read for all residential contractors, Trust Your Gut shows you how to create peace of mind in writing.
