Make Your General Contractor Work for You
Remodeling in New York City is an exciting and rewarding experience. There are a lot of beautiful homes and apartments ready and waiting to accept a makeover!
The hardest choice is where to begin and then how to fit all the project components together to ensure you are completely happy with the outcome – within your desired time frames and within budget.
Remodeling may come easy to you and you may complete your project quickly and on budget. Or you may be like the rest of us and have a great plan, but no idea about how to begin to initiate the process – have you ever thought about hiring one of the many highly qualified general contractors in New York?
The thought of hiring someone to do something you think you should be able to do yourself is sometimes a little difficult, but how can a general contractor in New York help you?
Well to begin with, the job of a general contractor is to act as a ‘middle man’, they find the best contractors available to do the particular job you need completed. General contractors are responsible for finding you the best most qualified contractor available that will help you to complete your dream remodeling project.
So you have decided to use some of your budget to access the services of a general contractor to help you to complete your dream project, you need to get the best results for your money – but how?
The first thing you will need to remember is that you have to be ready to be completely open and honest with your communication. You will be relying on this person to achieve maximum results for you and you need to develop trust early in the relationship.
There are a number of things that you can do to establish a trusting relationship. You may begin to research the availability of good general contractors in New York with friends and family or perhaps at work. If people can recommend someone the next obvious step is to view their work, either in person or by looking at photographs, and then discuss in detail the overall professionalism of the general contractor to get a better understanding of their work ethic. If you don’t know anyone who has accessed the services of a general contractor in New York, then do your own research, look for someone who specializes in the projects you require, set up a meeting with them and view their work.
The next step is to confirm your plans. What do you want to achieve for your space, how much money do you have to spend and what time frames do you have in mind. Without making these choices, your project will probably not completed on time or on budget!
Ensure you have details about the size of the space you want to change, information about your building and any building permits or local regulations that you need to abide by. Do the research! Make it easy for your general contractor and put together a book of ideas full of your favourite materials, fabrics, colors and fittings! Take photographs of existing spaces that friends and family live in, visit art galleries to get a better idea of colors and textures, and really research thoroughly what you want.
A good general contractor will help you to access sub contractors and products quickly and easily, and will be worth the money so that you can spend more time worrying about other things in your life. In saying this, however, verbally stress the importance of your budget and time frames – you don’t want to spend more money than you need to.
General contractors have so much knowledge and access to the latest products, materials and technologies, try not to get too carried away with what they offer. Be really clear and upfront with all items that will potentially cost you money, no matter how attractive they appear. Hiring the services of a general contractor has the potential to make your life stress free for the duration of the intended remodeling project.
If you embark on your project with a positive attitude, have a clear understanding of what you want and need, stick to your budget and time frames and maintain an open level of communication with your contractor you will be happy with the end result.

How do you choose the best general contractor?
We are getting quotes from general contractors to change our flat roof to a gable roof. However, the estimates that I am getting range from $14,000 to $34,000 and all of them claim to work with an architect. Its seems that if the architect works independently from the contractor the price is much higher. I just want to make sure that I can get just as good a job done for a price we can afford, without being taken to the cleaners!
You need to check with your local Registrar of Contractors to see if there are any open or previous infraction by the builder. You will also be able to see how long the builder have been in business for (the longer the better). When comparing estimates, you need to make sure you are comparing apples to apples. A $20k spread is huge for a small project so somehow, one of the bids are missing services, whether it is demolition, hauling fees, materials to match existing, etc. If you’re putting concrete tiles on the new gable roof, does it happen over a large expanse of windows/sliding door? Any of those builders include additional support on the header and foundation due to the increased load?
Just compare the differences in terms of included scope of work from each builder. By doing so, it may give you a better understanding of the price discrepancies.
How To Find A Good General Contractor
In by gone days all a contractor had to do was give the customer good quality and good service and he/she would be set. Then set back and let your customers do your selling for you. They would tell a friend and then that friend would tell a friend. Your phone would be ringing off the hook. I remember as an Architectural designer some days I would have up to four people wanting to schedule appointments for designs. Those days are long gone! But Fear Not! Click Here For Help
