        "text": "When contacting a contractor's references, ask specific questions to gauge their experience. Inquire about the quality of the contractor's work, their adherence to the budget and timeline, and their communication style. Ask if the project was completed to the client's satisfaction and if any unexpected issues arose and how they were handled. Also, ask if they would hire the contractor again and if there's anything they wish they had known beforehand. This helps assess reliability and customer satisfaction.",
