Things to Never Say to a Contractor
If you’re looking to hire a foundation contractor for a job, you need to continue reading this blog. Within it are a few important tips on how to develop a good relationship with your contractor. Contractors can often be a great source of a lot of stress and anxiety and are good at obtaining the maximum amount of profit while putting in as little work as possible.
Never Tell a Contractor You Are Not in A Rush
If you tell a contractor there is no rush to do your project, they will back burn your project. And take on other jobs spending their time doing them. You need to tell them that there is a timeline and chart out what you expect from them. Make sure that you set realistic deadlines, and let the contractor know they will lose money if the job is not done within the deadline.
Never Hire Anyone Illegally
Some contractors will try to bring in people that are not licensed to work on your job. You should never hire anyone who does not have the ability to do your job. If you are not diligent on this, you run the risk of a huge liability should anyone be injured. Make sure the contractor is fully licensed and insured, and you have been the insurance policy for yourself.
Never Agree to a “Gentleman’s Agreement”
Always put any agreement with a contractor in writing. You may think that this is just a silly piece of paper, however, if anything does go wrong, or the job is done poorly, that silly slip of paper is your guarantee that you can do something about it.
