When it comes to the vast majority of jobs, who you hire to do these jobs matters. The criteria you use to make a choice as to who you hire may change depending on the job, but if you’re like most of us, you’ll want the best all-around value. When you’re going through the process of choosing a commercial remodeler for your remodeling project, it’s important to apply this same type of critical thinking. But what, exactly should you be looking for when deciding who to hire?
Judge Engagement
One of the first things to look for in a Commercial Remodeler is their level of engagement upon arrival. Are they eagerly looking around, assessing the job site and immediately generating ideas for your project? What is their confidence level? An engaged commercial remodeler is one that is going to be highly confident and take pride in “owning” your project, not simply add it to his to-do list. If the contractor is not immediately engaged and ready to add value, consider it a red flag.
General Contractors Team
When the contractor is assessing the existing building and generating plans for the remodeling phase, have they invited their subcontractors to do the same? A commercial remodeler who’s serious about your project will invite their subcontractors out to the job site to assess the situation with them. Besides showing that the contractor has built good relationships with his subcontractors and is serious about the project, this also allows them to give the customer an accurate estimate.
Good Commercial Remodelers
Last but not least, sit down and interview your potential commercial remodelers. This should be one of the most important steps in the decision making process regarding which commercial remodeler you hire. Get to know the contractor, their level of experience, the projects they’ve completed in the past, and how they go about their work. If you fail to interview your contractor prior to hiring them, it is difficult to know what they will be like to work with. That’s a big gamble that you can easily avoid making.
This is just a primer to get you started when it comes to choosing the right commercial remodeler for your job, but it should get you well on your way to making the right choice.
