A: It's not uncommon for contractors to ask for a down payment up front to secure your spot on their schedule or purchase some of the job materials in advance. Asking for more than half of the project cost up front, though, is a big red flag.

Up to a 50% Deposit Can Be Reasonable Almost every contractor charges a homeowner a deposit on a remodeling contract. Up to 50% of the total project cost can be reasonable, although 10% to 30% is more common.

The Home Improvement law prohibits contractors from asking for a down-payment of more than 1/3 of the total contract.

The exact deposit amount contractors ask for upfront varies and is especially dependent on the size of the project. For relatively small jobs, like a $16,000 bathroom remodel, contractors may ask for a 50% deposit. For large jobs, like a $100,000 full-home renovation, a 10%–20% deposit is more typical.
