It’s not enough to invest in quality materials for your home renovation. You must also choose a reputable contractor to execute your project. Selecting the right contractor involves getting references and referrals as well as doing research. Knowing more about the people working on your project can help you ensure your project runs smoothly. Read on to discover the people behind your renovation project and what their roles are.
General Contractor
You can avoid hiring multiple subcontractors by hiring a general contractor. When you have one, you won’t have to deal with different companies for your project. When looking for a general contractor, consider how established they are in your area. Request references and ask about the quality of their workmanship. Make sure that the company you choose to work with is licensed, bonded and covered by insurance.
Home Remodeling Contractor
Professional remodelers are different from general contractors. They are the people to hire if you’re altering a significant part of your house, including making structural changes. For your project, look for a home remodeling company with established relationships with other industry professionals, great communication skills and handyman skills.
Specialty Tradesman
You’ll need specialty tradesmen for jobs that require specific skills. These individuals include painters, electricians, plumbers, roofers and window installers. The jobs they do may seem easy but require the right training and tools.
Handyman or Carpenter
You can count on a handyman for small repairs and minor renovations. A handyman may not have a niche skill but can help replace your light fixtures, clean your gutters or fix a leaky faucet. A carpenter is who you need if you need something to be built. A carpenter can handle making stairs, railings, cabinets and a house’s framework.
Landscaper
An experienced landscaper can help boost your home’s curb appeal. Before hiring a landscaper, obtain references from reliable sources, request a portfolio and determine if their experience suits your needs.
