Contractor information is most valuable when attached to the work they performed
A phone number alone does not tell the future household member why the contact matters. Record the project or system, date, scope and outcome.
Keep quotes separate from completed work
A quote is not proof that work happened. Mark proposed, scheduled and completed records distinctly.
Record important product or warranty information
If the contractor installed an item with a warranty or specific product model, add that information to the relevant asset or project record.
Preserve follow-up notes
Maintenance instructions or future recommendations should become tasks instead of being left in an email thread.
Keep private notes professional and factual
The household contact record is not a public review platform. Avoid unnecessary personal information.
Contextual CTA: Add the last provider who performed significant work and connect the contact to the project or equipment they actually know.
