Contractor seems like car salesperson

Contractor seems like car salesperson

I had a contractor come over last week for my kitchen. He is perfect in regards to no complaints and seems to really know his job. My problem is he sounds like a car salesperson...too hard on the sell. The other problem is the square footage of my kitchen, he says one thing, I say another (2 others gave me same #).

Should I over look these things and give him another chance or look somewhere else? His price, I believe, his on par with others except he does not itemize things just a general price.

I was considering someone like that. His estimate came in higher than the others but I liked his credentials. However when he tried to talk me out of getting a composite deck I thought twice. He was trying to sell us the cheapest products and it was more money for less stuff. That's exactly what I thought of a used car salesman. Would continue to shop around...

I think it's better to get an itemized estimate
