How to Choose the Right Construction Company for
Your Project?

There are many construction companies to consider
when you are getting ready to build anything,
whether it's your dream home or the biggest, most
luxurious hotel on Planet Earth. The key is to
think about everything very carefully and try to
figure out which company will do the best
job. Whether you're a home buyer who is looking
to build or renovate or a designer who is
considering which construction companies to work
with, making a selection is serious business. The
key is to balance cost with a low level of
hassle, which can be difficult in this industry.
However, it is possible when you understand the
process.

• Here are six tips for choosing construction
  companies
• Read every contract carefully. The biggest sign
  of whether a company is professional is how well
  their contracts are done. You can get an idea
  about whether they employ people who will dot the
  i's and cross the t's or whether you will
  have to do all of the heavy lifting.
• Find out how they handle their communications.
  With some companies, you will notice that it is a
  real challenge to simply find someone to talk to
  who knows anything about your project. You need a
  contractor who is available and able to speak
  with you on your time.

• Look at their works in progress and their
  finished jobs. It's natural that you should want
  to see their finished jobs, and that is certainly
  an important part of the progress. However, your
  investigations should not stop there. Ask to see
  some of the jobs they are working on currently
  because you will be able to see how well their
  job sites are organized. Watching them at work
  will give you a good idea about how well they
  will do on your project.
• Some construction companies specialize in certain
  types of building projects. Ask them specifically
  if they have done any work similar to what you
  want and ask to see the finished product on that
  job. Try to gauge how much experience they have
  worked on the type of job you are asking them for
  before you go signing any contracts.

• Check to see what their liability level is.
  Construction companies should maintain a minimum
  of 1 million or more in general liability
  insurance if they work on a lot of massive
  projects. Also make sure that they have covered
  every one of their workers under workman's
  compensation insurance. It doesn't hurt to ask to
  see the certificates as well because some
  companies might just tell you what you want to
  hear.
• Ask if they can handle your project in addition
  to everything else they are working on. Make sure
  to ask for a specific timeline. Most companies
  have several projects going on all at the same
  time, but you don't want to be that extra project
  which takes longer because you were the lowest
  one on the totem pole. Perhaps they are just
  finishing a project and can fit you in just
  nicely.

You may have several companies that do work that
are comparable in quality, but one may come in
slightly lower than the others. Avoid any company
with a bid that is exceptionally lower than those
from all other companies. Warren Barfett offers
