5 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Commercial Concrete Contractor

Commercial concrete is often a critical part of developing your business facilities. Finding the right contractor to implement the structures necessary to make your vision a reality is just as important. Here are five questions to ask a contractor before hiring anyone to do concrete work for your business. 

What should I ask when searching for a commercial concrete contractor?

These five questions will help you begin the conversation with a contractor to see if they have the qualifications and expertise you need for your project. 

1. What kind of concrete work can you do? Many factors determine the type of foundation best suited for your commercial property. Make sure the company you are speaking with has the capabilities to complete the specific work needed.
2. How long will it take to finish my project, and when can you start? Many factors impact the timing of a project, including the weather. In most locations, spring and early fall are the best times for concrete work. If other construction projects are part of your property development, crews will coordinate work to avoid interference. The scope of work will also determine a timeline. A knowledgeable contractor like us will be able to understand your needs and provide accurate estimates.
3. What are the steps in the project process? A good contractor will clearly discuss each step, including your budget and necessary documentation. You should review all documentation, starting with estimates and contracts, as well as permit requirements and the procedures for obtaining any required documents.
4. Who will be managing my project? Your contractor should know who is working on your project. Make sure you know who to contact at any time throughout the work. At H3 Construction, we maintain a wide range of in-house equipment used by our expert crews, who work closely with our project managers throughout the project scope.
5. What is your experience? A contractor should openly provide information on their experience and qualifications. Ensuring they have the proper experience to take on your project is essential to avoid slowdowns and other, sometimes costly, issues.

Any contractor you are considering should readily provide detailed answers to all of these questions. If they don’t, run! Keep looking until you find the company that provides the transparent communication and unparallel commercial concrete service you deserve.
