What is a Contractor?Contractors are often known as project managers. They oversee the entire remodeling of your project or new home construction and facilitate all day-to-day tasks enabling timely completion. A building contractor works with architects, engineers and homeowners alike to plan and build your project to ensure everything is in order before the work is even started. Furthermore, contractors arrange for all the necessary permits and inspections throughout the construction process. While good local home improvement contractors will have the skills to handle certain tasks onsite, such as carpentry, he or she is also responsible for hiring subcontractors for the majority of jobs, such as electrical work, painting or plumbing. In addition, the contractor oversees such work on-site and inspects the progress while resolving any potential issues that may arise. A good contractor acts as an intermediary guiding homeowners through the process of construction. This ensures their dreams become reality.
