When NOT to skimp
Some line items are tempting to cut and almost always cost more later: full tear-off vs. overlay on roofs, Manual J load calcs on HVAC, full-frame vs. insert on rotting window openings, and waterproofing/membrane work in bath remodels. If a contractor offers to skip any of these to "save money," get a second opinion.
