In addition to state and federal regulations, like the RRP rule and labor laws, remodeling projects are subject to municipal rules and regulations. Some cities are more contractor-friendly than others.
In fact, according to a survey by Thumbtack Journal, professional remodelers in 75 out of 95 cities covered viewed their local government negatively compared with the view of non-construction professionals.. On the other hand, the remaining cities got either a neutral rating or were viewed positively relative to the ratings of other professionals.
Thumbtack Journal created a list of the top ten, plus an interactive map showing results for all 95 cities surveyed.
