Three Benefits of Hiring a General Contractor for Your Home Remodel
So, you’ve made the choice to undergo a home remodel! If you’ve ever done a home remodel before, you’ll know that it can be overwhelming and sometimes confusing. To add to the complexity of it all, home remodels are costly and can be a huge money pit when errors and setbacks occur.
As a homeowner, you can opt to individually hire different contractors for all of the various remodel projects you choose to take on. However, with a general contractor, you can choose one person to oversee every single aspect of your home remodel from beginning to end. Talk about a huge weight lifted off your shoulders! You will not have to worry about a thing while all of the projects go underway.
Benefits of a General Contractor
Supervision
By hiring a licensed general contractor in Bend, Oregon (and the surrounding areas), you are placing someone who, by Oregon law, is required to have the experience and skills that are necessary to complete and oversee all of the projects involved in your home remodel. You will not have to keep an eye on each individual contractor coming in and completing the work, hoping that they are doing everything correctly, most cost effectively, and up to code. It is your general contractor’s job to take over the project and supervise the work. This will, hands down, give you better results and can even end up saving you money.
Maintain the Budget
It happens to the best of us: you set out to the local hardware store to take on a home project on your own, and after two mess-ups and a few oversights, you are in way deeper than you thought you’d be. Luckily, general contractors are really great, due to their extensive knowledge and experience, at estimating the price of your home remodel and sticking to your budget. General contractors are able to purchase the remodel materials at below retail and know how to prevent wasting money throughout the project. Additionally, they know just how long projects should take and are able to accurately map everything out for you to ensure that you stay within your planned budget.
Keep on Schedule
With most home remodels, time is important! You are either living in your home throughout the renovation, or you are anxiously living elsewhere, waiting for the project to be complete. This can be a subpar living situation and may even be racking you up money in rent. To make sure that your home remodel project is completed efficiently and stays on schedule with minimal to no setbacks, a general contractor is certainly your best option. While overseeing everyone, your general contractor can identify potential issues that may hold the project back before they arise and can help to keep the project running smoothly and on time, as planned. For the scheduling of the projects alone, a general contractor’s assistance is definitely worth it.
