Who would you rather try to help out?
The guy that comes in and lectures you on how to do your job, wants to stand over your shoulder as you work and all around is just a pain in the ass?
Or
The guy that brings you coffee and doughnuts, briefly discusses the know issue in a non condescending way and leaves you alone to do the work?

There is a balance there. Be nice, don't micromanage but have a conversation regarding your concerns. Above all do your research on whoever is doing the recall work. That's how I found my guy that did an amazing job. He sent me photos every step of the way, just such a pleasure to work with. I always pay people extra and show utmost respect to their talents and it goes a long way.
