When to Hire a General Contractor
Wondering whether or not to hire a general contractor? Unlimited Contracting wants to give you a little information to help you decide whether or not this is a good decision, and as always, we want to point you in the right direction!
As a home or business owner – or both – it’s easy to let little jobs slip by due to a lack of time or money – or both. Unlimited Contracting knows the meaning of a job well done, but many people are too timid to ask the question, “Exactly what do you do ?”
A general contractor will analyze the job at hand and hire subcontractors as needed to complete your project on a highly professional level. A company like Unlimited Contracting can save you a lot of time, hassle, and guesswork because we already have reliable subcontractors whom we work with on a regular basis.
If your knowledge of handyman and repair work begins and ends with picking up the phone to hire a professional, then it’s time to hire a general contractor! “Contracting” can mean anything from roofing, plumbing, or handywork. We can have someone out to your home or business to survey the job to be done and give you a price quote and a time estimate for the services we recommend. That’s contracting, and it’s something that every home and business owner will probably need from time to time.
Some do-it-yourself-ers who have the time and energy to do work themselves scoff at the idea of letting a contractor handle something they can do on their own. However, we’ve compiled a little list that will tell you if you need to hire a general contractor on your next project:
- When the job is complex and requires lots of organization and planning, hire a GC to manage the project for you. A general contractor will make sure that tasks get done in the correct order so that nothing has to be undone and redone, slowing down your project and costing you unnecessary cash.
- When the results must be spot-on. Some subcontractors may claim to be one-stop-shop guys who can do just about anything, but there’s something to be said for getting the best contractor in a given specialty.
- When the job is expected to take a few weeks. You could lose your mind trying to plan around each subcontractor’s schedule. Rather than trying to estimate when each job will be done and schedule the next service accordingly, let your GC handle it all!
- When you’ll need different permits, we also recommend that you hire a GC who is familiar with the local building codes. Otherwise, you could face hefty fines or be forced to cancel your long-anticipated project.
If any of these conditions apply to your job, you’re probably going to need a general contractor to help you smooth out the details of the entire process. General contracting services are a good idea for big projects like additions and remodeling, but they can be useful on smaller projects as well, such as basement refinishing. Unlimited Contracting is one of several general contractors in the Kansas City area that can guarantee professional results from all our subcontractors!
