Communicate with your handymen and get there opinion on a general time line of work that will be involved. After all details are cleared up get in agreement on a start date and a finishing date.

Image isn't everything but the way someone presents themselves as a person and a businessman can tell you a lot about how they view themselves. Does the guy seem genuinely interested in your project and your needs? What about their company vehicle and equipment; is the vehicle in proper order and clean and do they have modern equipment necessary to complete your job efficiently? These are just a few things to look for. Don't expect however to have them show up for a bid in a business suit, they are your handyman not your banker.
