How does invoicing/payment work for most Home Builder projects in Oak Park?
Every project differs, but you should ask any home builder for an estimate, before they do any work. In fact, ask for their general payment terms before any home building services work is done.
If the job is large and going to take longer than a day, it's common practice for home builders to request a down payment. Usually, this will be around 25% so they can commence work on your home builder project.
