Shopping for a Reliable Clark General Contractor
If new home construction or major remodeling project is in your future, youre going to need to find a reliable Clark general contractor for the job. Your first step, after having your plans and financing taken care of, is to get the best Clark general contractor available. A general contractor is a specialized project manager who can take your plans and oversee all aspects of the project from preparation of a building site to the finishing touches on exterior landscaping. The contractor will take care of such things as building permits, bookkeeping, managing subcontractors and the delivery of building supplies as they are needed.
Many people dont have a clue where to start when it comes time to find a qualified Clark general contractor that they feel they can trust with their project. If they end up with a contractor they are unsure of, the entire project can make for a very stressful time and the homeowner worries constantly about the outcome. So whether you are building a new house or simply undertaking a kitchen or bath remodel you need to find a Clark general contractor you feel you can trust to provide quality workmanship and dependable service.
Adding a Clark General Contractor to your Short List
Dont settle on any Clark general contractor until you have checked with the Better Business Bureau to find out if any complaints were ever filed. Try to get specifics and ask how any complaints were handled by the contractor. Its possible that a complaint is simply due to a failure in communication and once the contractor is made aware of a problem he will take care of it. Even the best Clark general contractor will inevitably get a complaint or two but what matters is how he handles any complaints. But if there is a lengthy list of unresolved complaints involving any general contractor, it probably signals some very poor business practices.
Any Clark general contractor that you hire to do home construction or remodeling must have licenses and insurance as required for his trade. You can check with the state licensing board or go online and search through a database of licensed general contractors. Its also important that that they carry liability insurance and workers compensation to cover their employees. You also need to make sure the Clark general contractor is bonded. If the contactor should abandon the project, the bond will protect you so you can get the job completed.
Getting a Bid from the Clark General Contractors
After narrowing down your list of contractors, youll need to gather some estimates for the project, but keep in mind that you should only choose a select few. Taking the time to write up a detailed bid can be expensive for a Clark general contractor. He will have to set aside time from his work day to find the time to prepare an estimate for you. By keeping the bidding process to just a select few, the general contractor knows he at least has a good chance of winning your contract. Too much competition and the best contractors may simply walk away because they have better things to do than spend time on a job they have a slim chance of getting.
Before a Clark general contractor can bid on your project, theyll need some information to work with, such as the size and scope of the entire project and an estimated time for completion. Provide each general contractor with a list of what you want included in their bids. You dont want them handing you just a figure for the total amount. You want to see a breakdown of what each component of the project will cost such as plumbing installation electrical wiring and wall finishing and you want a schedule of dates that will bring the entire project in under your planned date for completion. You might also want to ask for a list of subcontractors that will be working on various parts of your project.
Making Your Final Choice of a Clark General Contractors
After youve received all your bids, you need to go over them carefully. In choosing your Clark general contractor, you want to consider more than the amount of the bid. You also want the contractor that you believe is going to do the best job. Its possible that the general contractor with the most experience is your best choice, but it may be better to go with a contractor thats newer to the business. They often want to establish a trustworthy reputation and work with people that will later recommend them. Being newer to the business, a Clark general contractor may work harder to see that his customers are satisfied. Of course you need to make sure that any contractor has enough years of experience to take on your project.
The important thing is that you want to hire a Clark general contractor that will do the best job for the money and one that you believe you can rely on. Dont feel you have to choose the first general contractor you talk with or accept the lowest bid. While cost is probably the biggest factor to consider, you also need to keep in mind that a Clark general contractor is someone youll be working closely with and youll need to develop a good relationship. Dont forget that your home depends on the Clark general contractor you choose.
