Transparency in Contracting: What Homeowners Should Know
Episode 52
Tuesday, 17 February, 2026
Here at Big Fish, we believe in being transparent, especially when it comes to the stuff contractors don't always love talking about. Things like cost, timelines, budgets, and what actually happens once a project gets started. So in this episode, we're having a real conversation about it, with honest insight into how we approach projects and why we think clear communication makes all the difference. We talk through why bids can look so different from company to company, what really goes into pricing, and why the cheapest option isn't always the best one. We also get into timelines, like how weather, materials, and unexpected issues can shift things, and why having those conversations upfront helps everyone feel more confident moving forward. But before that, we end up talking about the Super Bowl and the halftime show, too, because why not? So if you're looking to hear what your contractor should be telling you from the start, this episode's a good one to tune into. Season 2 of The Big Fish Contracting Docuseries is out now!
